disabling ipV6
I know this is a FAQ, so apologies, but after much googling I've been 
unable to find a remedy.
I run my own caching BIND9 under squeeze, and as far as I'm aware it's 
correctly set up.
I'm using Thunderbird as my MUA, with an IMAP host on my VPS, 
smtp.vanderhoff.org.
When trying to read or send mail I invariably get a DNS timeout:
Dec 28 10:11:23 tony-lx named[1768]: error (unexpected RCODE SERVFAIL) 
resolving 'smtp.vanderhoff.org/AAAA/IN': 91.121.205.64#53
Dec 28 10:11:27 tony-lx named[1768]: error (network unreachable) 
resolving 'smtp.vanderhoff.org/AAAA/IN': 2001:41d0:1:d640::1#53
Well, that appears to be looking for an IPv6 address, and as my router 
doesn't support IPv6, it's bound to go wrong.
As far as I'm aware, nowhere do I require bind9 to look up IPv6 
addresses, and I have
	listen-on-v6 { none; };
in my named.conf.options.
Any suggestions, please?
