That's quite simple and also described in the ZopeBook. I presume you've 
created the Z SQL Method containing an INSERT statement and accepting 
the mail address as parameter. You only have to call this Method from 
within your script, giving it the parameters, like

myZSqlMethod(parameter_mail = request.mailaddress)

I'm sure you'll also find examples with a short search on the Zope 
website or at Google, but if you want you can also have a look into a 
How-To I wrote; it's mainly about using BLOBs, but if you abstract from 
the code examples you can also get a grasp how Z SQL Methods are used 
(it's quite simple, really, if you've done your homework concerning 
Python!):

And another time: Read The ZopeBook!

Have fun!
