mod_simpleemailform not working with both Joomla cache and loadposition |

I was using the simpleemailform module at the bottom of the page
embedded in an article. This particular template did not have a module
position at the end of the content area so embedding it was a workaround
to the problem... The module was in an unused position called contact
and it was being included in an article by use of the loadposition
mambot {loadposition contact}. For some reason it was therefore not
picking up the item id from the chosen menu. The result of this was that
the module on a cached site was displaying the same captcha each time
the page was refreshed. Not much good having the same captcha on each
visit is it?
I moved the module to position 'right' which is displayed on all pages
via a menu selection and removed the embedded module altogether and it
now works with the cache on/off.
So, it is worth noting that mod_simpleemailform does not work with both
Joomla cache and embedded in article with loadposition.
