[Asrg] IPv6 spam data

[Tim Chown]

Hi,

As promised in the ASRG meeting in Dublin, I will gather some stats
over the next week or two and assemble a draft-format doc with some
initial 'ball park' musings, including our local scenario/config.

If people want advice on dual-stack MX setup, see RFC3974.   This
document is 3 years old, but I believe what it says is still considered
best practice.
