    Sorry I don't want interrupt the discusion about original  proposal of John
    Martin, but I just receive 5 messages as this:
    
    *From: ORBS sender@localhost
    *Reply-To: ORBS orbs@localhost
    *Subject: 193.146.123.100 has been listed by ORBS
    
    Anybody know ORBS (Open Relay Blocking System) initiative ?

Yes. They see themselves as The Alternative to RBL.
But whereas RBL at least offers some `guarantee'
that you won't end up on their list without proper
investigation and quick removal if you didn't or
no longer belong on the list, ORBS doesn't really
offer anything like that. Fortunately sofar no ISP
seems to base its blocking policy on ORBS.
