One person who had a site set

So he setup a forward to <user(_at_)[machine-ip6-address]> and it worked.
Not really an argument _pro_ adding AAAA-fallback IMHO.
not clear. he might have set up forwarding to user(_at_)domain(_dot_) and it
worked because it just happened that the one MTA doing the forwarding
implemented fallback to AAAA.
I don't think that's much of a pro-fallback argument either, but we
should acknowledge that some existing MTAs do implement fallback.
