Should AAAA records not only be checked if the receiving domain has the
capability of sending mail using IPv6? Otherwise mail received via IPv4
from a domain which only publishes an AAAA record would also be
unbouncible. What also of a domain which has MX record(s) but the hosts
pointed to by those MX records only have AAAA records not A records?
Mail from those domains would also be unbouncible if sent to an IPv4
only recipient.
