--- Comment #2 from Bob Bishop <rb@gid.co.uk> ---
Just fallen over this myself with the package.

The problem is that emailrelay expects mapped IPv6 addresses. Set:

sysctl net.inet6.ip6.v6only=0

to enable mapped addresses and specify eg:

--interface ::FFFF:192.168.x.x

and behold:

# netstat -an
Active Internet connections (including servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address          Foreign Address        (state)    
tcp4       0      0 192.168.x.x.465        *.*                    LISTEN    


I don't know whether this is just a poor choice of build options, but it's ugly
as hell. Don't get me started ....
