It was listed in ORDB, for largely spurious reasons - there was a
theoretical vulnerability in lugh's mail server, which has now been
fixed.

I've resubmitted the server to ORDB for testing; it should be gone
from the database shortly.

I wouldn't really use the ORDB to block email; they've been way too
zealous in the past about including systems with vulnerabilities which
are only theoretical or very difficult to explout.
