sendmail lookup failure



Sendmail is reporting lookup errors, deferring outgoing mail
eg
yahoo.com works
hotmail.com doesn't (mx1 - mx4)

normal dns lookups is aok
sendmail lookup isn't

sendmail -d8.8 ...@hotmail.com:

dns_getcanonname(hotmail.com, trymx=1)
dns_getcanonname: trying hotmail.com. (AAAA)
        NO: errno=0, h_errno=4
dns_getcanonname: trying hotmail.com. (A)
        YES
dns_getcanonname: hotmail.com
[-no output anymore-]


might be because of IPv6
any hints to try out?

THX!
