My experience with ORBS is that if any mail relays, i.e. if it is forwarded
via the nobody alias, instead of bouncing back to them, then they list it as
a relay. I've had to get rid of the nobody alias on all of my domains (while
they were testing anyway) in order to get my domains listed as closed.
You could always require SPA of your clients and turn that on in Imail.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Open relay and the nobody alias
A couple of our domains have been reported to ORBS as open relay. We set
the security to accept mail from local users only. Now the people that use
the nobody alias are unable to send mail if the account does not exist. If
I change the security to accept local domains then it shows as an open
relay by ORBS.
Is there a way to use the nobody account and still keep ORBS off our tail?
