I believe first you can check the sharePoint log (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\LOGS) as well as the event log when the issue happens to see if there is any relavant infromation, this may help you to address what's the exact failure.

Be sure you do not log on as System Account if you have SP1 or later service pack installed.

Please use a less privileged account and try again.

See A declarative workflow that is configured to start automatically when e-mail enabled items are created does not start automatically after you install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Service Pack 1 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/953289) for more information.
