The ORBS people are dweebs who have no clue about running services like this - my first contact with them was to receive 6 (or more) copies of an automated message which wasn't even sent to the proper parties (it was spamming all likely admin addresses). I believe freebsd.org and cdrom.com are (were) still blocked by them based on an open relay which has long since been shut. As far as I'm concerned, their ISP had the right idea and GOOD RIDDANCE to "the dorkslayers." Leave spam blocking organizational efforts to those who are halfway competent or risk tarnishing the reputation of the whole movement, I say. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
