No, the POST data should be sent again, when someone uses the rleload

A elements should never, of course, send POST requests. However, if you
try to return to a POST result in the history, especially if expired,
most browsers will ask you if you really mean it, because POST is not
required to be idempotent, so re-POSTing might cause you to pay money
multiple times.

Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want.
RFC1855 says there should be an address here, but, in a world of spam,
that is no longer good advice, as archive address hiding may not work.
