OSU finally plans to fix their open relays!

After years of having tons of SPAM go through their servers, knowing about
it and refusing to close their open relays, OSU has decided that perhaps
they want to be able to send email and not have it bounce with a MAPS or
ORBS message.

They flat out admit that they had their servers set as open relays
INTENTIONALLY in the following release:

Not that I don't appreciate this greatly but, OSU: It's about %^#%^&#
time!
