Speaking of ORBS, does anyone have a list of the source networks that
they run their tests from?

That is the ORBS third party relay test engine. It maintains a list
of servers
that allow third party relay for use of MTA's to limit spam exposure.
I have
cc'ed Alan Brown , who maintains it, if you would like to investigate
further.

Subject: SMTP relay tests

     Hello,

     In the company I work for, I'm getting, from time to time,
     mails from something like FROM:mails from something like FROM:xptodomain
RCPT:RCPT:relaytestdomain.
     Namely, I got this test originating manawatu.co.nz, which
tested
     thouroughly, with empty sender, uucp style, et al...

     What are these people motivations ? E-Commerce spamming ?
     Trying to get some kind of anonimity ? It's starting to get
     on my nerves.
