Hello,

I’m the creator and ror developer of vipc.it, a photographic  
competition that works pretty well.  
I’ve created different releases and implemented different techniques  
to collect entries, from simple http to flex upload to manage big  
files (up to 5/6 mb), but every solution always had disadvantages:  
unresponsive server, user from many countries with old computers  
(problem with flash ect)…  
So I’ve just finished a script to grab emails and decode entries from  
Gmail and it works good, but there is way too much logger information  
for each image (by TMail I suppose): aprox 20,000 lines for a small  
300KB entry…
