Was playing with a test box here at home. Installed SpamAssassian from a 
newely cvsup'd ports tree on a FreeBSD box, and was surprised to see 
messages getting marked as received in blacklists that no longer exist.  
Most noteably ORBS.  Since this was a fresh Install I hadn't gone 
through and removed the dead RBL's from 20_head_tests.cf yet.  Since 
dorkslayers doesn't exist. any queries for it are returning that 
infamous sitefinder address.

[doon@fawkes doon]$ host  34.131.246.64.orbs.dorkslayers.com
34.131.246.64.orbs.dorkslayers.com has address 64.94.110.11

So anybody that hasn't update their SpamAssassian config, now has the 
added benefit of all ip's being tagged as an open relay.

Just an FYI
