[Koha] Emailed Overdue Notices

[Agnes Rivers-Moore]

Hi Josh

Library email addresses are set in two places. One in Admin which is 
specifically for patron update requests, and the other in Libraries, 
Branches & Groups, for other messages especially overdue notices. You 
may of course set both to be the same address.

As you say, the addresses set for the branches receive a huge email 
including a concatenation of all the notices that could not be sent 
because Koha had no email in the patron's account. I have a single 
library site so I am not certain how Koha chooses which email to send 
the notice to if, say, the patron belongs to one branch and the book 
belongs to another.
