I haven't tried the email gateway, but I can update issues.  I see the
irker message from when you tried to create one and indeed that issue
does not exist.  However, there are no messages among those sent to the
tracker administrators that show errors around that time or for a few
hours before it.

If this continues to plague you, we'll probably need to do some live
debugging.  You can ping me (bitdancer) on IRC, I should be on for the
next 8 hours
or so.
