There is a syspref AutoEmailPrimaryAddress (under Administration, system<br>
preferences, patrons) which lets you specify which email field should be<br>
used for notices -- email or emailpro. However, so far as I know, Koha<br>
doesn't have the ability to use both. I think it would be a useful<br>
enhancement to set it up so that if field A in email priority list is<br>
empty, use address in field B.<br>

Subject: [Koha] Overdue notices<br>
<br>
Is it correct to assume that Overdue notices are only sent to Home<br>
email addresses (borrowers.email)?<br>
<br>
Some patrons provide both a home & a work email (borrowers.emailpro).<br>
<br>
Ideally, the Patron DB would be setup to allow staff to specify the<br>
default email address to be used for notices.<br>
<br>
Otherwise, Koha should send notices to any available address (work if<br>
no home address available, & vice versa.)<br>
<br>
At present, I believe we would have to copy work addresses into empty<br>
home address fields to ensure that Notices are sent out.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
