[ale] Any Postfix + ipv6 people out there?

Hi alers,

I've been working on enabling IPv6 on my personal servers and I ran into
a strange issue last night when I enabled v6 on my mail server.  All of
a sudden, all the rest of my local hosts that send daily logwatch emails
are being rejected (at least those that are v6-aware but don't have
public v6 addresses).  It's as if the permit_mynetworks isn't working
anymore with link-local addresses.

The error I get appears as if the smtpd_sender_restrictions is rejecting
the email, but it should accept it based on mynetworks:

smtpd_sender_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,
        permit_tls_clientcerts,
        permit_sasl_authenticated,
        check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/goodsender,
        check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/badsender,
        reject_unknown_sender_domain,
        reject_non_fqdn_sender,
        check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/sender_access,
        reject_unverified_sender,
        permit

I haven't found a good way to debug postfix and have it log exactly why
the mail is being prevented.  Here's the full log that I get in my maillog:

May 31 09:18:12 mail2 postfix/smtpd[26444]: connect from unknown[fe80::20c:29ff:fecf:7df0%eth0]

May 31 09:18:12 mail2 postfix/smtpd[26444]: disconnect from unknown[fe80::20c:29ff:fecf:7df0%eth0]

Any gurus around who can help me debug?

Thanks,
