Many of the mega newsservers are freely accesable via IPv6. (e.g. try newszilla6.xs4all.nl) However no major newsreader supports this protocol (or actually AAAA DNS record lookup). That is except for Linux based newsreaders like PAN. Clearly this is a feature that any future release of newsleecher...
