This attack uses (some of) the same bugs as exploited in the FormMail.pl
script from Matt's Script Archive, but this is a completely new variety
because spammers are actively searching for exploitable formmail scripts
in any language, by automatically trying each script and inserting fake
headers in each successive form field, and seeing which ones are
susceptible to the attack, and in which way.

I've seen it happening since about september last year.
