I do hope IPv6 is supported as well for queries.  The AHBL backend was
upgraded earlier this year in preparation for that.  Its still not
automated yet though.

On a side note, I was considering making a separate IPv6 domain as a
whitelist rather then a blocklist.  IE: Register with us your legit mail
servers, and we'll allow them through rather then outright block.

Better time then any to try to stem the flow of spam before it becomes an
issue with ipv6.

Thoughts?
