Clemens,

use gdaltindex to create a raster catalog for your rasters, this is a 
shapefile, in the example called "index.shp".
(need to install gdal-utils)

Then create a layer like this:

LAYER
  NAME 'luftbild'
  TYPE RASTER
  TILEINDEX '/path/to/index.shp'
  TILEITEM 'location'
  STATUS ON

  METADATA
    'WMS_SRS' 'epsg:[EPSG]'
    WMS_TITLE 'Rasters ..'
  END

  PROJECTION
    'init=epsg:[EPSG]'
  END

END
