Enabling IPv6 in Sendmail 'woody'



Hi all

>From a NetBSD sendmail ipv6 installation I know that adding those lines to
the mc file should be fine to enable ipv6 in sendmail.

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Family=inet, Name=MTA')dnl
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Family=inet6, Name=MTA6')dnl

But when I create sendmail.cf and restart sendmail I get this output:

Dec 20 18:50:23 magma sm-mta[9335]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket:
daemon MTA6: cannot bind: Address already in use
Dec 20 18:50:23 magma sm-mta[9335]: daemon MTA6: problem creating SMTP socket

But there is no binding on port 25 I can see with netstat -a or lsof | grep
IPv6

Anybody and idea what's broken? As told this config works fine on NetBSD.
