   There is a rumor kicking around that ORBS black listed ``Telstra''.  
   Telstra directly or indirectly controls about half of Australia's IP
   address space.  Think about this - half of the Australian Internet
   can't send e-mail ....

It's true.  The ORBS losers are unhappy with the amount of spam coming out
of Telstra customer addresses, so they've just blanked listed the whole lot
of them.  Andrew--please forward this message onto overseers for me, as I'm
blocked, too.

Please--can we drop ORBS from sources.redhat.com?  I don't think we should
be agreeing with their strategies any longer.
