Me entero de esto por slashdot.

La verdad es que estaba dando errores raros desde hace ya varios días.
Ya podemos quitar la línea reject_rbl_client correspondiente con
pleno conocimiento de causa...

ORDB.org is shutting down

2006-12-18 11:34

We regret to inform you that ORDB.org, at the ripe age of five and a
half, is shutting down. It's been a case of a long goodbye as very
little work has gone into maintaining ORDB for a while. Our volunteer
staff has been pre-occupied with other aspects of their lives. In
addition, the general consensus within the team is that open relay
RBLs are no longer the most effective way of preventing spam from
entering your network as spammers have changed tactics in recent
years, as have the anti-spam community.

We encourage system owners to remove ORDB checks from their mailers
immediately and start investigating alternative methods of spam
filtering. We recommend a combination involving greylisting and
content-based analysis (such as the dspam project, bmf or Spam Assassin).

DNS and the mailing lists will vanish today, December 18, 2006.
