Does anybody know, "Am I being shakin down here?"

Who is ORDB.org and where did they come from....
I am getting mail saying that I am relaying mail from them and that i will
be listed in their DB of open relays.

However Maps shows that I am not an open relay since their last test.
Nothing has changed here?

This guy Boll Overgaard says that his software is more up to date than the
other
spamcops after I sent him the Maps results. Is there no standard for the
police?

This guy I am writing at ordb is not providing me with the criteria they are
using (should it be different than other spam police orgs.....)  Even oRBS
said we were safe as milk when they were around.

This guy is saying fix it or else which pisses me off. I am not his
scapegoat
for having something more to do on the net than pointing fingers.  (Bet
there is not a thing I can do but let him poke and poke some darker
regions.)

This spamcop thing is starting to remind me of ASCAP and BMI in the music
industry.

I do not have relaying for addresses set-up.  Is that ORDB's business?
Also, I just don't want to know where users are calling from. They should be
able to use the
internet period, the way it was intended.  It is not any of my business.  My
business is protecting
my customers resource availability.

My log sizes are consistent and no huge abuse attempts are obvious. Many are
trying...... I am sure that someone slips through.  But is that what this
ORDB guy is saying...."no-one gets through or I put you on my list?"

But still, the point being is that I am OK with the other spamcops. Open
Relaying is off and
I stand a constant vigil since the 200,000 e-mail dump that prompted me to
turn off relaying.

All I need is an understanding of what these want without someone getting
weird about it and just telling me to fix it or else.

Thanks for your help and advice.
