But this (or some other error) didn't happen immediately?
Correct. It happened after some number of connection. Using "lsof", I could not see any that limits were being realistically hit, either.
Unfortunately I have just one ipv6 freebsd 7 machine to work with :-( and mail is supposed to be a production service. I'll have another opportunity to do more on June 14, when downtime is scheduled for another location. At that time I'll get that location's OS updated, onto ipv6, and since it is just two (flexible) people, I'll have more room to play.
