dovecot - Dec 2016 - IPv4/IPv6 mismatches of doveadm: Fatal: connect(fd00:b::1:12345) failed: Connection refused

Hi ?

I recently extendend my IPsec tunnel between two mail servers to deal with IPv4
addresses in addition to IPv6 ones. (No specific reason for that.)
I ran into an issue worth reporting. This is Dovecot v2.2.27 (c0f36b0) at
FreeBSD STABLE-11.

Previously:

	dovecot.conf:
		plugin { 
			mail_replica = tcp:remote.test
		}
		service doveadm {
		inet_listener {
			address = [::]
			}
		}	

	| local> host remote.test:	
	remote.test has IPv6 address fd00:b::1

 	working well.

Currently:

	dovecot.conf:
		plugin { 
			mail_replica = tcp:remote.test
		}
		service doveadm {
		inet_listener {
			address = *
			}
		}	

	| local> host remote.test:	
	remote.test has address 10.2.0.1
	remote.test has IPv6 address fd00:b::1



Now, Replication stops and throws an error like:

	| <mail.crit> local.test dovecot: doveadm(user): Fatal:
connect(fd00:b::1:12345) failed: Connection refused


If I either

	#) remove IPv6 from my lokal DNS, 
	#) use "mail_replica = tcp:10.2.0.1", or 
	#) define the appropriate IPv4 address of remote.test in /etc/hosts, 

then replication works as usual.

Hmm, shouldn't doveadm be more persistent in using every IP address of that
entry of mail_replica *before* throwing a "Fatal:" error?
Or do I miss something, and it's a feature, instead?
