I have verified that if customer A has no e-mail set up in his customer
record and customer B has an override e-mail set to the same
login@default.domain as customer A, an e-mail is sent to customer A's
login@default.domain address. BUT, entering an override e-mail is a
covert operation. Looks like maybe Shawn needs to add one step of logic
to the password recovery routine. If there is no e-mail service on a
customer record then no mail should be sent. I think the dialog should
say something like:

"Duh! You don't have e-mail on our system..."

Regards;
Jeff
