Ean Schuessler commented on OFBIZ-534:
--------------------------------------
The real problem is that you can't guarantee a direct match. If you wanted to keep this feature I would make another method called "matchPartiesByEmail" or something that suggests the fact that it is a fuzzy search.
> getPartyFromEmail does dangerous matching

> getPartyByEmail does a '%EMAIL_ADDRESS%' match when you search for an email. This means that you can get back
[hidden email] when you search for
[hidden email]. I can't really see the point of the current implementation and it can have dangerous and suprising side effects if you are going to mail personal information. I'd suggest doing a direct but case-insensitive match. The case insensitivity is a good feature.
