This document discusses SMTP operational experiences in IPv4/v6 dual
stack environments. As IPv6-capable SMTP servers are deployed, it has
become apparent that certain configurations of MX records are
necessary for stable dual-stack (IPv4 and IPv6) SMTP operation. This
document clarifies the existing problems in the transition period
between IPv4 SMTP and IPv6 SMTP. It also defines operational
requirements for stable IPv4/v6 SMTP operation.
This document does not define any new protocol.
