Did I miss a question somewhere here?

Ramos [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 9:59 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Thoughts on this - relays.ordb.org Came across this.. thoughts. CAR Connection-based filtering was used to blindly reject content using nothing but faith in the independent listing service. One of the popular realtime blacklists (RBL) was ORDB and it was a database of mail servers that were open relays. These servers could be used by anyone, without authentication of any sort, to send SPAM content all over the Internet. In December of 2006, ORDB went offline. On the morning of March 25, 2008 relays.ordb.org came back online, blacklisting everything. How, why, when and so on are not important, the only relevant task here is to stop using this RBL. If you receive a Non-Delivery receipt referencing relays.ordb.org, the remote mail server is still using ORDB to detect SPAM and it is dropping all your inbound mail. We are not able to remove the affected IP's from this decommissioned list. The rejecting mail servers should be contacted and advised that this list should not be used. ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja ~
