The bug reporting mechanism for Zope exists at
http://collector.zope.org.

I saw that you said you used a patched version of FTPServer.py
created by me... where did you obtain this from?  cvs.zope.org?  Or
from an attachment to a post on the maillist?  Did you use this
version because it was claimed that it fixes a bug similar to the
one that you're currently seeing?

Thanks,
