Hi,

I don't really have a strong opinion on the whether or not AAAAs  
should be used for email address resolution. However, it might be  
worthwhile to point out that since IPv6 has no significant benefit to  
the vast majority of users to drive acceptance, I suspect that from a  
network administrator's point of view, every time IPv6 is not treated  
the same way IPv4 is, you are adding an impediment to IPv6 deployment.
