Note that these arent ORBS, they are more like children of ORBS. I think
these folks seem to be less fanatic than ORBS was. I have the impression
that ORBS did stuff like drop in all the Hotmail servers, for example.
Not because they were open relays, but because they got some spam from
Hotmail users.

We decided that in the interest of "Internet good citizenship", we'll work
with the customers or whomever complains about legit mail getting blocked
to fix their servers rather than let the crap come in.  Im waiting for the
next Nimda that uses open relays to send viri laden spam :-(
