Actually, so does Matt's formmail. According to
http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/about.html Matt's scripts are outdated
and insecure, which is not suprising seeing how old they are. Better to
get a newer version of Formmail from nms.

Definitely true. Some of my clients' sites get automated probes for Matt's
old formmail script daily.
