The rates can be set per party in the party manager, or per work
effort in the work effort manager. If there is a work effort on a
time entry and a rate for the party on that work effort that
corresponds to the rate type on the time entry then it will use it,
otherwise it will look for the rate associated with the party for the
given rate type and use that. Not finding anything it will leave it
at 0 (and with the accounting extensions you can set it manually).

There is no functionality to send bulk emails or other bulk contact
list communications. The functionality sponsored for this was just
for maintaining the contact list with double-opt email, etc.

I took a peek at this and it looks like a simple case of the common
bad code. The link in appheader.ftl and MarketingMenus.xml was wrong
for the Segments and is now fixed in rev 6043.
