Package: postfix-gld
Version: 1.7-3
Severity: important
Tags: ipv6

The program fails to match sender MTA's correctly in most cases when an
IPv6 address is used.
This is because the field "ip" of the table "greylist" in the MySQL
Database is only a char(16) in /usr/share/gld/tables.mysql
To be able to store IPv6 addresses correctly it should be at least
char(39) (8x4 characters plus 7 for the separating ':').
Or, if you want to take into account IPv4 tunneling features it should be
able to store e.g. "[0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:192.168.0.1]" and
should then be char(45).

With kind regards,

Edwin.
