Initially those transit providers and ISPs that do offer IPv6 transit will be able to charge for this service as it will be a premium value add. However I can't see this business model being able to last for more than 6 years (through to 2012), and possibly only three years. After this point in time I expect IPv6 deployment will be standard, and will no longer be a premium service offering - it will be the standard offering, like IPv4 is today. Once IPv4 has become exhausted and you can't actually give a customer an IPv4 address then you definitely wont be able to charge more for IPv6 - otherwise the customer will walk. So do providers start implementing slowly now, and recoup some of their investment while they can, or wait till they are forced to do the upgrades and are not able to recoup any of their "new" investment. Rhetorical question.

XTRA(yahoo) automatically tagging legitimate mail as Spam

by Michael Hutchinson

Hi All, We are currently having an issue with one of our Exchange servers sending email to user mailboxes on Xtra. We have tracked the email leaving the server, and have EventID's from logs on the Exchange server telling us that delivery is successful. However, when we log into any of the Xtra mail accounts, we can see the emails are automatically being put into the Spam folder of those accounts. There is nothing about the emails to suggest they are spam, and the final received headers say nothing about Spam, let alone even that it has been checked for Spam. As far as I can see it is only affecting one of our domains. We have several other domains with exchange servers that deliver to Xtra mailboxes just fine. I have contacted support at Xtra about this, as well as Ted Grenfell (who got back to me straight away) and we're trying to collate enough data to attack the problem. Is anyone else having this issue? (It would be nice to know that we're not the only ones being picked on by Yahoo.) Cheers, Michael Hutchinson Manux Solutions Ltd

The New Zealand Network Operators' Group The New Zealand Network Operators' Group (NZNOG) has no king, president or formal membership. It consists of the subscribers to this mailing list. The group is intended to facilitate discussion among operators of networks in New Zealand on matters relevant to network operators as described in the list's Acceptable Use Policy. That policy appears later in this posting. Conference We hold New Zealand's only technical networking conference. If you weren't there this year, take a look at http://2008.nznog.org/ and http://www.r2.co.nz/20080124/ to see what you missed.
