I noticed that Message-ID: <42bca25c$0$37751$c5fe704e@news6.xs4all.nl>
from Daniel Tryba contained the following:

Please note I said /could/. I'll admit it's a quick and dirty solution
(though I use it in my mail script where the originating page is bog
standard html with no php).
Using some kind of redirect will involve passing the input back to the
form. Which means page 1 has to have the capacity to redisplay them.
And if you are going to do that you may as well build in the validation
into page 1 and simply redirect to a thank you page on success.
