Actually, ORBS hasn't listed us. That e-mail touched precicely 3 systems:
the client, the one I'm building, and our internal Exchange box. It ended up
in our *INTERNAL* e-mail server as an undeliverable message. qmail tried to
send it to someone inside our network who didn't exist. What I'd like to do
is just outright refuse the messages.
