Mailfromd does not support IPv6 so far.  It is not inherent to mailfromd
itself nor to Milter in general, it is simply a leftover from old days.
Implementing IPv6 should be fairly straightforward, but it should be done
in C sources, which are responsible for basic networking support.

I was just going to do so in the Git version, so if you are interested
I can make a working snapshot for you when I'm ready (I expect it to
take a week or so).
