[Commons-l] CISS

After the recent discussion about image submissions through OTRS, I'm
putting my code where my mouth is:

CISS - the Commons Image Submission System

http://tools.wikimedia.de/~magnus/cgi-bin/ciss.pl

How it works: mail your images to
  magnus at ts.wikimedia.org
and the mails (and images, if you included any) will appear on the site above.

That, said, it doesn't work - yet! It's a partially working demo with
more flaws than I can count, so any help is welcome.
Some flaws in this version:
* Uses my email adr on the toolserver
* No upload to commons
* No answering to mails
* No mailing thread management
* No real thumbnails
* No mail deletion/closing/archiving
* No spam filter
* No flood prevention
Hell, it doesn't even sort mails by date yet!

Despite all this, it should demonstrate the ideas I have for that system.

Ideas? Comments? Coding support?

Magnus
