If you need to maintain state with your custom Task form, you could do so
with a custom field that is flagged with a particular value depending on an
action performed or a value that is changed.
For your circumstances, perhaps checking the value of TaskItem.Status during
the Item_Open event, and disabling your relevant controls that creates your
update messages?
If you want Cc or Bcc functionality for Task Requests, add these people to
the TaskItem's StatusUpdateRecipients or StatusOnCompletionRecipients
collections respectively.
