There is an AAAA record for globalchaosbbs.com but no response on that address. No surprise because Irex does not support IPv6 and it never will because it is abandonware. So you have to choose....

1) Dump Irex and install an IP mailer that supports IPv6
2) Remove the AAAA record for the host name used in Fidonet.
3) Use a trick like a V6to4 proxy,

I've used option 3 first. Don't know it this worked, but using this
for my 3 Ports. Feel free to test and give a feedback to me.

I'm afraid it does not work yet:

We can move this to the IPV6 echo. It is available at 240/1120.
