Then tell us how ORBS can scan those hosts to determine they're allright? Remember that above.net has blocked ORBS...
As long as above.net doesn't give ORBS (and others?) a way to make sure their hosts don't relay, I'm more than happy to block their whole network (as an ORBS user).
So valinux and linux.com can't send email to vger, funet and dozens of other sites and kernel developers? When it starts to inconvenience them they should chose a different ISP, I know I'll continue using ORBS...
