[tip] Changes to the ORDB DNS Blacklist

mxORB 2.3 (and earlier versions) are configured by default to use the DNS blacklists from ORDB (the Open Relay Database). ORDB have now ceased to provide the blacklist and mxORB should no longer be configured to use it.

To remove the ORDB DNS blacklist, follow the steps below:

  1. Open the Configuration tool and double click on the Internet Blacklists icon
  2. On the DNS Blacklists tab select ORDB from the list
  3. Click the Remove button
  4. Click Yes to confirm the removal of the blacklist
  5. Click OK to save the changes to the Internet blacklists

More Information

mxORB version 1.0 used the ORDB blacklist exclusively - we are sad to see it go and would like to take this opportunity to thank the people who ran the database for so many years for their efforts.
