| Bug | A4L-8592 | Deactivated contacts receiving emails as matter contributors | The lookup for contributors is for contacts not for users. When we create a user we also create a contact. But there's no sync between user and contact, so if we deactivated a user, the related contact does not get deactivated. We should enable the sync between contacts and users, and make sure that only active contacts receive an email. Also, a migration script should be implemented so contacts related to inactive users become inactive as well. |
