[otrs] create ticket from form / same as Email Ticket

[Jo Rhett]

This concerns OTRS 1.3.2 (running on a provider's system) but it  
appears to be much the same with a 2.2 installation I have here locally.

I'm trying to create a ticket by submitting a form prefilled with  
values.  The goal is to pre-fill the To: and Cc: fields from a local  
customer database.  I copied and minimized the form from Email  
Ticket, and it looks like the following.  However, whenever I submit  
it I get

Message: Need TicketID!
Traceback (18383):
    Module: Kernel::System::Ticket::ArticleSend (v1.19.2.1) Line: 1131
    Module: Kernel::Modules::AgentEmail::Run (v1.34.2.2) Line: 597
...etc

However, the stock form supplies an empty TicketID as well.  The  
purpose is to create a ticket.  What am I doing wrong here?
