I just installed phpwscontacts today, and see one
potential point of confusion.

Let's say a user creates an account, which has an email
address associated with it (in table mod_users). There
is no user admin of that email address today.

The user then adds personal contact information in
phpwscontacts, including an email address.

If the website uses phpwsmailinglists, the user may
also sign up for one or more email lists.

Later, the user's email address changes, and he updates
the email in phpwscontacts, thinking he is updating the
address for all functions on the website.

I'd like to suggest that the email address field be
integrated with table mod_users, so that if a user
changes his email, it's reflected in mod_users.

Thanks.
