IPv6 Experiences?
« on: March 07, 2013, 04:26:34 PM »
Hi there, we are thinking about deploying some IPv6 connections and starting to do some testing. Has anyone else tried this extensively? What were your findings? How do the big 4 handle IPv6? How does IP6 affect deliverability?

Note that of the medium to large US based, ISP/inbox providers, only google/gmail and comcast today support IPv6 IPs at their inbound gateway.

very interesting. thanks for letting us know. so that means Yahoo/Hotmail/AOL do not accept email by IPv6?

Anyone care to share any experiences with delivering to Google over IPv6?

I found this after doing some searching.  Should be a good resource for everyone to bookmark:

IPv6 is ready but not common.
We have to wait till Hotmail and Yahoo starts using it.
