Re: IPv6

Hi,

we've been using IPv6 for a few years now, but so far we haven't used it with Cyrus. Now we want to, and I have a few questions:

Is it correct that if we use host names in the listen statement and add a AAAA record to the DNS that Cyrus will automatically listen to both the IPv4 and the IPv6 address?

I have manually added listen statements with literal IPv6 addresses to cyrus.conf and HUP'ed the master, but that didn't seem to work. What format do I have to use? Plain addresses (e.g. 2001:DB8::6f0:484c:df5:e8b1:28cd), in brackets like in a browser (e.g. [2001:DB8::6f0:484c:df5:e8b1:28cd]), sendmail-style (e.g. IPv6:2001:DB8::6f0:484c:df5:e8b1:28cd) or ...? Or is the problem that for changes like that I have to restart the service?

Cheers
Sebastian

Hm, the man page say "bracket-enclosed IP address" but until now we have only used the port as service name "imap" e.g. listen="imap" which works fine for both IPv4 and IPv6 on a dual stack host. Do you have any special need to use the hostname/IP address and not bind to all local addresses?

Regards

Andreas
