CenturyLink offers 6rd to both residential customers and business, but no wa=
y to set RDNS on the individual /64 or /48s assigned to each static ipv4 add=
ress the customer has.  Rather huge omission, IMHO.

I got bit by this bad when !$@& google started outright rejecting email from=
 ipv6 addresses with no RDNS.

Yay exim for allowing me to tag broken remote smtp servers to only use ipv4.=
