As for ORBS: I have had several customers with open relays lately (which they've shut as soon as we notified them). A couple of them used our primary mail server as a smarthost, so ORBS listed it as well. In each case, ORBS failed to notify us of the listing at all. We only found out when our customers had mail blocked at servers using ORBS.
I got notified when ORBS found one of the servers under my care to be open.
Ah. Here's the copy of the notification that I got. They send to postmaster@Second.Level.Domain and postmaster@Hostname.Of.The.Mail.Server. That.Is.Found.To.Be.Open[0]. Question is, is someone answering postmaster@Your.Customers.Domains.And.Your.Own.Domains?
I have postmaster@hiwaay.net delivered to my mailbox (after procmailing out the regular automated stuff). We also have several people that check the abuse@hiwaay.net mailbox several times a day. Last time I even checked our mail log for anything that might have been misdirected or filtered out. No notification at all, multiple times now. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Information Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
