ORBZ ?

[Tyler Hall]

I don't know if anyone else uses the inputs/outputs.orbz.org filters for
your mail server, but I ran into a little problem today with them.  For
some reason, their site went down, even though you could ping it, it was
down, and then I realized I wasn't getting any mail, after doing some
research, I found out, it was blocking all the mails I was getting;

So, I'm wondering, if the site is down, does the filter freak out and
block everything, or what?  Such failover service..

Did anyone else run into this problem tonight?
