This seems to be the explanation: $ dig supercom.ca. aaaa ; <<>> DiG 8.1 <<>> supercom.ca. aaaa ;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch ;; got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 6 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUERY SECTION: ;; supercom.ca, type = AAAA, class = IN 8.12 will most likely have a workaround for this (as usual sendmail provides a workaround for almost every broken configuration...) New ResolverOptions setting: WorkAroundBrokenAAAA. When attempting to canonify a hostname, some broken nameservers will return SERVFAIL (a temporary failure) on T_AAAA (IPv6) lookups. If you want to excuse this behavior, use this new flag. Suggested by Chris Foote of SE Network Access and Mark Roth of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
