    Is a misuse of "Send Email"-Feature/Tab, by automatic spammers possible?

    If yes, is there any CAPTCHA-Feature?

    Our widget requires human interaction through button clicks and prompts that would deter most automation scripts, as most of them post data directly to a web-based form. To date, we have never seen a bot get through our system. So, we haven't implemented a captcha feature because we feel it's troublesome for real users.
