Bull. Although I'd be amused to see how you figured that...
Check the above urls, this is a request by you to Zope's ZMI that got 
redirected to the manage_main. In fact, it's you looking at the error 
log itself.

*sigh*

That's because you're an idiot. I have half a mind just to hack your 
server to prove a point. Nice of you to tell the entire list the IP and 
port where it's running...

Ah, lazy AND stupid. You should become a politician.

Yes, that'd be the "stupid" coming out again.

...which really should be firewalled off for everything other than 
localhost.

Have you actually thought to check your qmail logs to see what it thinks 
is happening?

The fact that MailBoxer wants to do an HTTP post like this to add a 
message is, quite frankly, scary and should make you run far away from 
it for starters.

Of course, you could just use mailman, but hey, far be it for you to 
actually listen to the advice of anyone on the lists you keep pestering.
