Actually currently there is no email column on the new code.  We could
add one though but this poses an issue to be discussed.

One of the huge differences between 1.3 and 1.2 is that an employee,
customer, or vendor can have any number of email addresses, postal
addresses for sales/shipping (but only one address for billing), phone
numbers, etc.  If we want to display this info, how do we choose what
to display?  I suppose we could just display every email address,
phone number, etc.

You are still hitting the old code.  SVN 3302 (iirc) and the
3302-menu_changes.sql correct that issue.
