The only way that would do anything "funny" is if the customer that was
requesting the email set the override email. Not the other way around.
Customer A can't set their override email to "joe@whatever.com" and then if
joe (Customer B) requests a password it's not going to do anything because
it's a different account. The only thing that would be "odd" is if Customer
A requests their password, it's going to send it to "joe@whatever.com"
because that's the override email for Customer A. Optigold does not *seach*
on override email when looking up the customer, it's just where it gets sent
to when a customer is sent email. And you only can set the override email
address for your own account.
