I saw a number of these as well but in my case the bracketed IP 
addresses were malformed.  For example:

host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[2607:f8b0:4002:c01::1a] said: 550-5.7.1 
[2607:fc50:1000:1f00::2      16] Our system has detected that this 
550-5.7.1 message does not meet IPv6 sending guidelines...
