A first contact needs a reCAPTCHA token in \`captcha_token\`, minted in a browser on the ad's own page: markt.de verifies it with Google, so it cannot be produced here. Without one the portal answers 200 with the contact form again instead of sending. A reply into an existing conversation_id needs no token.
