I've ran nummerous open relay test yesterday, which all say that I'm not an
open relay. One of the test was even from ORDB.org.

You are an open relay. Take a deep breath, unplug your machine from the
internet, and snuggle up with spec.txt for a little while.

I know this is frustrating when you first get started, but running an
internet facing mailer is a responsibility not to be taken lightly, and
you are violating that trust. Until you are more aware of the
ramifications of what you are doing, please disconnect that machine.

Take care,
