[freeside] errors

[Kristian Hoffmann]

Is the address on your sevice or is it a remote address?  If it's
something like guy at yahoo.com, they it will store it as just an email
address.  If not, it'll look up the service in svc_acct and store the
account's svcnum.  I don't know what more to suggest other than make sure
that account (the one that is the email invoice destination) is in the
database as a shell of some sort.
