why multiple/identical validation emails?
Hi,

Why is it that in many instances I get multiple validation emails for same web site sent to me in email? Is it because users are clicking on the submit button more then once? In many instances the validation email's date and time and category are all the same too. Sometimes only seconds or minutes apart. But always the same validation email for the same web site, etc.

How can I limit it so I only get one validation email per submission? The 'referer' is for my domain so I'm pretty sure it's not a submission script being used to spam me.

Thank you!

Yes...double clicking the SUBMIT button is probably the problem...I posted some possible solutions to this problem both in this forum, the Links 2.0 Customization, and also in the Perl/CGI forum.
