Yes, that's what I'm thinking happened here, but I need to verify that was the case. Are there any logs in zope that could help track this down, or a known configuration that would allow it to happen? Also, for future reference, can we disable this? Any ideas how someone might be able to tell

Thanks for all the help - it was indeed Apache. The older relay messages did have the CONNECT verb in the logs, however the most recent ones simply used the formmail.pl which was readily available. Didn't mean to blame Zope for all of this - just the piece of the puzzle I understood the least.
