I'm assuming you're a RoadRunner customer?  

Your Apache isn't relaying anything.  It looks like RoadRunner is
doing some sort of audit on their customers.  I have been picking these
up in my /var/log/messages (from iptables logging) and my Apache logs.
They are from as far back as December 24th (that's how far back my
logs go) and seem to happen at least once a week.

In addition to Apache, I see them probing these ports:
119, 25, 8080, 8081, 6588, 4480, 3128, 1080, 81

I realize that our TOS probably allows them to portscan our computers,
but it would seem a little bit more "polite" if they announced that they
were going to be doing it beforehand.  To me, this seems like the 
equivalent of my homeowners association rattling all of the windows on
my house in the middle of the night to make sure they're locked.

If these scans from RoadRunner bother you (they bother me), you can take
care of the problem they way I did:

iptables -I INPUT --src 24.30.199.228/32 -j DROP
or
route add 24.30.199.228 reject

Subject: Does this mean my Apache is relaying mail?


I noticed log entries like these in my Apache logs.

24.30.199.228 - - [22/Jan/2003:18:55:49 +1000] "CONNECT
security.rr.com:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 14244 "-" "-"
24.30.199.228 - - [22/Jan/2003:18:55:49 +1000] "PUT
http://security.rr.com:25/ HTTP/1.1" 200 12768 "-" "-"

Since 24.30.199.228 is not my IP address does that mean they are
relaying mail through my Apache or is it my Apache sending mail to them?
