K259	Wednesday 30 March 2005 7:20:47 am We're going to change all our email-addresses on our ez-site. We want to replace all @x.x.de addresses with @x.de. I'm thinking of doing a replace in the mysql prompt in the ezurl table..where I replace all istances of @x.x.de with @x.de in the url field. BUT, I see that there is a field in the ezurl table called original_url_md5 which is a hashed value. In which way is this field beeing used? Do I have to update this as well? Best regards.
K259	Thursday 31 March 2005 4:47:36 am I now see that the original_url_md5 is a hashed value of $url-field, but don't find any documentation on where this is beeing used, or which function this field has. Does anyone know some more about this?
