How do you get mail.ipv6.yahoo.com to actually get *used*, when your average user doesn't know where they set 'mail.yahoo.com' in their PC's configuration, and either don't understand why sometimes's it's foo.com and sometimes it's www.foo.com, or don't even bother, they just type 'foo' into the address bar and let the browser add www. and .com, or they go to google and enter 'foo' and hit "I feel lucky"? You're basically stuck that you have to provide one name with both ann A and an AAAA record, or your support desk staff will mutiny. Attachment:
