I'm new here. I'm running SIMS 1.7 also, and I'm also using "Relay 
for Clients only".

I looked up the release notes for 1.8b8: 
http://www.stalker.com/SIMS/History.html

It appears that 1.8b8 has been out for several months. Are many 
people running it? Are there any downsides to using 1.8b8 compared to 
1.7?

It looks like there are several new spam-related features but could 
you explain why the simple "Relay for Clients only" command in 1.7 
doesn't do what ORBS feels is necessary?  Which of the new 1.8 
features makes ORBS happy?

Also, is there any other summary of changes between 1.8b8 and 1.7 
besides the history page above? It's hard for me to tell in the many 
bug fixes whether they are bug fixes for earlier versions of 1.8bx or 
if they are fixing bugs present in 1.7, also it's kind of hard to put 
the various new features in context?

Lastly (finally!) is there some sort of upgrade procedure floating 
around that covers going from 1.7 to 1.8b8?

thanks! -Steve
