I think you have two options -
a) force your system(s) to only use ipv4 b) try to solve the uplink ipv6 issue
fortunately or unfortunately depending on ones position, restarting network on the server appears to have solved the problem. "a" worked for a short time before I restarted the network and now ping6s times are respectable. wahoo:~ > ping6 imap.gmail.com PING imap.gmail.com(qn-in-x6d.1e100.net) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from qn-in-x6d.1e100.net: icmp_seq=1 ttl=44 time=50.5 ms 64 bytes from qn-in-x6d.1e100.net: icmp_seq=2 ttl=44 time=50.5 ms
I cannot say with *any* certainty what was actually wrong, only that resetting the network appears to have solved the mail problem.
You had a similar problem last month:
[opensuse] something with IPV6 causing Tumbleweed connection problems?
IPv6 connectivity to yahoo was lost.
I guess I did, but that was all local machines and this instance *only* affected my server but is the same router. and restarting network on the server would not correct the router. ???
Problem is, at least me I don't have an exact idea of why it failed in both cases, for IPv6 only.
fwiw: I complained to at&t and they are sending a tech to look at my lines and modem/router, Wednesday next. guess my connectivity is not important to at&t. and I will change providers shortly, back to cable. my experiences with at&t are not good or even average ...
:-( I have been lucky so far with Telefonica, which was more or less founded by ITT, so which I tend to confuse with AT&T. People here post similar complains as you do about Ma Bell and look a likes :-p That said, I get much better service by entering my issues on Telefonica web forum than by using the phone. Service is slower, but the people seem to know their stuff and not be talking heads. And I don't have to fight the entry robot. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
