I have Apache running on my Red Hat 7.3 box.

Besides getting all of the Nimda and Code Red Garbage I have starting getting these.

217.107.162.253 - - [10/Feb/2003:04:21:22 -0600] "CONNECT maila.microsoft.com:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 906 "-" "-"

217.107.162.253 - - [10/Feb/2003:04:21:24 -0600] "CONNECT maila.microsoft.com:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 906 "-" "-"

67.8.245.50 - - [10/Feb/2003:14:06:58 -0600] "CONNECT mail.thumbgalleryhost.com:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 906 "-" "-"
:confused:
I didn't think that Apache would relay mail and that is what it looks like it is doing. Am I wrong?

Thanks for any insight.
