Apologies to overload thread, and happy to create a new one.
Is it possible to disable removal of duplicate email addresses while importing contacts? I see this post, but it really just works around the limitation by adding more attributes to track various other records that share the same email address.
Currently, I map to standard EMAIL attribute and open to adding workarounds like creating a custom MYEMAIL attribute (unless there are other downsides later on by doing so)
