Comment by someone on July 5, 2021: @Scott The lack of ipv6 is very huge issue. I think it's worth mentioning in the list of drawbacks that there's no ipv6 support.

Comment by Scott on July 5, 2021: What's your use case that makes it a huge issue?

Comment by someone on July 7, 2021: I can't access purelymail in ipv6-only environments. That's the huge issue for me. ipv6-only environment is my main workflow and email is essential part of it. Second reason is that country where i live has a tendency to block email services like that - protonmail, tutanota, cock.li, etc.. all are banned. For some reason, censorship doesn't affect ipv6 provided by my ISP. Having purelymail reachable over ipv6 would save me from situation when it will be eventually inaccessible due to censorship. Don't suggest me VPN/proxy because it's actually overkill when there's already native ipv6 that can successfully bypass restrictions.

Comment by Scott on July 8, 2021: That seems reasonable- I have no real objections to providing IPV6 for the user SMTP/IMAP/etc services, it'll just take a bit of technical dev and fun configuration. I probably wouldn't provide it for public SMTP yet, but it sounds like you wouldn't notice anyway.
