Yep.

Here is an example with its corresponding log entry:
http://rafb.net/p/ZExDCs95.html.

And here is my configuration for emailing comments:

# comments plugin settings
py['comment_dir'] = '/home/mwolson/pyblosxom/comments'
py['comment_smtp_server'] = "localhost"
py['comment_smtp_from'] = "comments-Znfbo4/[email protected]"
py['comment_smtp_to'] = "comments-Znfbo4/[email protected]"

From the log, it appears that comments are being sent using the email
address typed into the comment form, rather than the one I specified
here.  I'm not sure why.
