Gmail rejected our domain (Exchange 2010) emails

We are using Microsoft Exchange 2010. From the last 3 days we are facing problem. Whenever we send email on any gmail address, Gmail rejected our emails and we receive following error message.

mx.google.com gave this error:
 [2002:6f44:630e::6f44:630e 16] Our system has detected that this message does not meet IPv6 sending guidelines regarding PTR records and authentication. Please review  https://support.google.com/mail/?p=ipv6_authentication_error for more information. z8si7536589eee.353 - gsmtp.

Here I would like to mention that our SPF, PTR records are ok. Our IP is not blacklisted and IV6 is also disabled on our network card. Still we are unable to send email. It is requested to please resolve our issue.

To disable IPv6 is a bit more than just turning it off on the network card and is also not recommended by Microsoft. It can cause problems with Exchange.
Therefore if you have just unselected the option on the network card, reselect it and reboot the server so that you don't have further problems with Exchange.

Your ISP has almost certainly enabled IPv6 on your connection and you need to turn it off on the router, so that the traffic doesn't go out over IPv6 at all.

Your reverse DNS is resolving correctly also?

Please guide me how can I removed ivp6 from send connector?
or turn ivp6 back on the nic..
I would not recommend disabling IPv6 on the exchange server along with Simon.  It can lead to various issues.

My IPV6 is disabled for the last 3 years but I have not faced any issues. I am facing this issue for the last 3 days.
I would contact your ISP to see if they changed something.  As stated above.  Your operations have been running perfectly fine so it might be something outside of your infrastructure.

So I should ask from ISP to disable IPV6 from our Huweai Router?

One more thing. our one department send bulk job emails (some 1000) daily to yahoo , gmail and Hotmail. Is that could be reason that gmail treats our emails as spam? Any idea?
You would get a "google has suspected suspicious activity" warning (something along those lines as being marked for SPAM).
