thats too late. Roundups mail gateway checks if an email is allowed to
submit. Only *after* that check auditors are called.

It is all done in a database transaction. So if you're using a
relational database backend (mysql, postgreSQL, sqlite) this *is*
atomic.

In a way, yes. But you can follow links (or multilinks) to other
objects. For example when you are called with an issue auditor you can
already access the messages and files of that issue (and the user even
if it has been created in this transaction). For an example what you can
do you may want to look into the nosyreaction.py file in the classic
tracker. This contains (contrary to the name which suggests it only
contains a reactor) an auditor that updates the nosy list. For this it
looks through the messages of the issue.
