True, a SESSION can be reset by closing the browser but I am not

what about storing an md5 of the message body in the db?
Sure you can do all kinds of things with a database but I try to avoid
unnecessary connection to the db because they are expensive.
It all comes down to how badly you want to prevent the same message to
be sent twice.
I have seen bots submit the same message from multiple IPs and some will
even modify the message a bit by adding some random data to the end. So
I am not sure how effective a simple md5 check will be.
