 "AutomapHostsOnResolve 0|1

     When this option is enabled, and we get a request to resolve an
 address that ends with one of the suffixes in AutomapHostsSuffixes, we map
 an unused virtual address to that address, and return the new virtual
 address. This is handy for making ".onion" addresses work with
 applications that resolve an address and then connect to it. (Default: 0)"



 The Default is actually 1.  I know that because the value in my torrc file
 is 1 and I can access sigaintevyh2rzvw.onion.  I'm running Tails 2.6 with
 the included Tor Browser (6.0.5), and the relevant torrc is at
 etc/tor/torrc .

 I have left the options below at their defaults because I'd just be
 guessing.

 It should be very simple to confirm and fix.
