I've seen it work fine with several systems
if people follow a submission template. I
suppose something could just snarf up a piece
of email to webmaster and save it as the
body of the issue without processing, but I
think without enforcing a template it's going
to be pretty tough for it to be useful. And
I don't see any way to enforce a template,
"webmaster" is like "postmaster", it's an
address that's expected to be there and
people just send to it, free-form.
