Proper DNS Setup
inet_protocols = all
so postfix is trying to send email to some Google customer using my IPv6 address but I don't have any AAAA records so I'm getting:
<
550-5.7.1 [2600:3c03::f30c:9f1f:fe98:d6c3] Our system has detected that
this 550-5.7.1 message does not meet IPv6 sending guidelines regarding PTR
records 550-5.7.1 and authentication. Please review 550-5.7.1
5.7.1 information. h142is1049317vkh.130 - gsmtp (in reply to end of DATA
command)
[note I changed the IPv6 address above to anonymize this message]
Should I just comment out inet_protocols or set:
inet_protocols = ipv4
Or would it be better to add AAAA records?
Is there any chance my ipv6 address could change?
Where are PTR records set?
Would you agree the lack of a PTR record for my ipv6 address is the cause for "Undelivered" from Google?
I have one stand-alone postfix server with a handful of users so this is a very simple setup. But I want maximum compatibility so I want to know if it would be better to simplify to ipv4 or do ipv6. Basically what would make me look less spammy?
I'm not sending bulk or any kind of automated anything. It's all strictly hand crafted business mail.
Also I'm assuming my SPF record should look like:
v=spf1 ip4:45.67.71.123 ipv6:2600:3c03::f30c:9f1f:fe98:d6c3/64 -all
?
