a tad sad and petty tho that a few people have moaned about abovenet doing
this and no one has thanked them for looking out for them

I'm not saying that Above.net is doing a bad thing when they're scanning
their customers for vulnerable named version, I'm saying they're doing
something wrong when filtering ORBS.

imho a great deal of customers are not on the right cert lists and not up
to speed enough to realise they have a problem

Amen, dito with the open relay/spam problem.

No need to continue this thread, I think everybody knows where everybody
stands on the ORBS issue.
