Exactly. |

I've noticed that fetchmail has some long delays when it's compiled with |
| 15 |
ipv6. In that case it's probably doing ipv6 lookup first then waiting |
| 16 |
for timeout and then finally doing ipv4 lookup. As a result I've been |
| 17 |
downloading ~80 mails for half an hour. |

It's very annoying especially when you know that ipv6 support hasn't |
| 20 |
been enabled by you. |
