Whois is > not necessary. I'm moving this discussion to the ml. I definitely remember people sending me a patch for this, but I can't seem to find it. It was for a very old DL version though (0.3 or earlier) so the code won't apply anymore anyway. The basic idea is correct though. Each "send-link-to" email would get a different ID, so that you can track who downloaded the ticket and who didn't. I have already a plant to re-implement this on top of the new sources. My question to you is this though: how would you display who downloaded the ticket or not? If you send the link to 3 persons, should I generate 3 tickets? Or just 1 ticket that has 3 emails connected to it? In the latter case, how would you display it in the interface?
