open relay = open mail relay - your mail server will accept mail from
anyone and forward it to anyone... the sort of server spammers love...
there's a switch in linuxconf <shudder> in the servers/mail delivery
system/basic section (or something like that) entitled "enable SPAM
control" or something like that (pretty vague - but not infront of
computer at the moment) that will close your mail relay so you can
get off the orbs blacklist...
