That is WRONG. I use ORBS on a number of servers that run sendmail,
postfix and Exim. It works like a charm, keeps out spam and has a few too
many false positives, which come in thru my secondary MX's (real spammers
don't usually retry sending to a fallback host...)

Who is the qmail team? I have never heard of them and would like to make
their acquaintance.

Can you please provide proof for ORBS supporting script kiddies?
If you mean that the OBRS list of potential relaying host as such
constitutes help to script kiddies, why does this not apply to other RBL
lists? And what technical solution to spreading such lists of IP's in a
secure manner do you propose?
