    0) Better late than never...

    1) It isn't enabled until Oct 1st, so it is still a matter of wait and see...

    2) I am not using Exchange Online, so it will not affect me.

    3) I see that reddit.com's website is not reachable via IPv6. :(

    4) So... Good news? Not really, Id say...



    Cheers, Michiel

    2) I am not using Exchange Online, so it will not affect me.

    But it will allow emails to be send via IPv6 to 3.2 mln people who do use Exchange Online.

    3) I see that reddit.com's website is not reachable via IPv6. :(

    I've read it could be on ipv6.reddit.com

    That is good but why did they wait so long? This could and should have been done 10 years ago!

    3) I see that reddit.com's website is not reachable via IPv6. :(

    I've read it could be on ipv6.reddit.com

    That works. But then again: using this method was done in the early days of IPv6 when it still was sort of experimental. But IPv6 launch day is 12 years ago. Accessing a web site via IPv6 should be the standard, not the exception!

    Hmmm.... It seems to be broken because SixOrNot says it connects via IPv4.
