Ray Barlow commented on OFBIZ-1054:
-----------------------------------
In OFBiz you will find that ContactMech details are generally (if not always)
immutable. Therefore the action of updating your email address actually expires
the existing and creates a new one, try it and then click on the "Show old"
link and you'll see more than one email contact entry.
Your patch, which I'm sure will get applied as it makes perfect sense, will
show the problem very clearly once you update an email address already
associated to a contact list the user will no longer get the newsletter. The
contact list will remain associated with the old expired contactMechId as no
code has relinked it, so it needs to be manually updated, hence the need for a
jira issue to help the process.
Hope that makes sense,
Ray

> Hi all,
> If you create a contact list with 'Contact Mechanism Type = email address'
> and then create comm events (ie send email to parties in the Contact list),
> you will see that the emails are sent to all parties in the contact list,
> even to the expired email addresses.
> With the attached patch the expired emails (PartyContactMech) are filtered.
