Title: administrator test fails with no aaaa record for mx
Post by: lilmike on June 14, 2016, 03:34:59 AM
Hi,
I'm trying to go through the ipv6 certification tests, and the administrator one has me stumped so far.
I put in my email, xxx@2mb.solutions, and the test claims there is no aaaa for mx, but I can see it from pretty much every site I try to do, including with dig, and other tools. The mx is mtserver.mwtd.net, if anyone wants to verify this. Could it just be that the dns hasn't propagated in like half a day? Or is something else going on.
Thanks,
-Michael.

Looks like it just hasn't propagated

Hi,
I would have thought that as well, but pretty much everywhere else I try -- whatsmydns.net, my home computer, my server, friends computers, all see it. I believe the ttl is 5 mins, so it really shouldn't be taking this long.

I flushed local resolver cache on the test server, please retest.

Hi,
I tried again, and still got the no AAAA for mx record. Should I email ipv6@he.net or continue the discussion here, as I seem to have the attention of he staff?
Thanks,
-Michael.
