Pressing the back-button after a dropoff cause a "resend data" request
to the user: if he tells "yes", the same file/message is sent again and
two equal dropoff are stored. I'm not against the reuse of the auth as
an absolute requisite, you convince me, but i feel it more robust if i
can't do the same operation twice.<br>

But why not allow multiple dropoffs for one auth request?<br>
After all, the point of the exercise is to prove they are who they say
they are. I see no great problem in caching that information to make it
easier for users who just want to press the back button and do another
one for someone else without going through the hassle of the
email+captcha for each dropoff.<br>

response to the problem of the reuse of an auth delivered to an
unauthenticatd user ( really the remote user can dropoff as that auth
as many times in the validity period), a possible solution can be a
copy of the auth key into the dropoff entry (table dropoff). If you
find that an entry in dropoff exists with that auth key, you can send
an error "no more than a dropoff for every authentication request".<br>
This can leave out also the repeated dropoff if you resend the post
data after a back-button press in the browser.<br>

What do you think about ?<br>
