Yes – this is STILL an issue. A hotfix/patch has been pending for over a YEAR! If you want to read all the details do a search on:

ipv6 dns exchange 2007 2008

The fix? Under your Send Connectors, check “Use the External DNS Lookup settings on the transport server”.

Don’t forget to set your External DNS settings under “Server Configuration >> Hub Transport” under the “External DNS Lookups” tab.

Finally, for fun, you can restart the Microsoft Transport service.
