This persondoes not know thedifference between MAPS and ORBS.Wow, this text was incredibly ambiguous.
MAPS offers three different lists: RBL -- the traditional realtime black hole list, of confirmed, unrepentant spam sources DUL -- the list of provider dial ports, as you shouldn't be receiving email directly from some other ISP's dial pool in most cases RSS -- 'relay spam stopper', an open relay list which is much more tightly run than ORBS, as RSS requires samples of spam that have come through the relay, whereas ORBS actively hunts open relays, whether they are being used for spam or not. In all cases, proof of spamhood is required. The do not scan for innocent open relays.
