Well here's your golden opportunity to learn Zope! :-)
I would like to create it, but my knowledge in zope is way too limited, don't know what is the best way to start this. I know I could use postfix to deliver to a program, but from there...
If you know how to configure Postfix, you're 75% of the way there already. It's easy enough to whip up a Python glue script that can hit a URL, make a POST request or even script Zope directly. That's pretty much all that's required to bridge those two systems. The tough part will be determining how to get your users to provide valid, parsable data by e-mail consistently enough to make it worth the trouble. The difficulty of this should not be underestimated. Normal people are very bad with structured data... computers aren't so great with unstructured data... it'll be a challenge to bridge this gap.
