Anyone who claims that ORBS doesn't scan is using an extremely narrow definition of the word scanning. If you take a list of hundreds of IP addresses, and relay-test every IP on that list, is that scanning? ORBS supporters claim that it is not. Don't take my word for it, ask one. Try something like "Didn't Alan Brown admit on SPAM-L back in 99 that he will take a list of hundreds of addresses which is submitted by one of his supporters and relay-test every IP on it, without any evidence that any address on the list has ever delivered spam?"
