Hello,

I can confirm your claims. When I enabled IPv6 on my mail server Google began 
dropping or severely graylisting 100% of the mail until the IPv6 subnet was 
added to the SPF record. This needs to get fixed or the IPv6 outbound SMTP has 
to be disabled or Google users will lose tons of mails from the list.

Matthew.
