Issue Summary
I import an email address but don't send any invitation. then I import another email address but again first email address's contacts come instead of the second one.
Comments
#1
I have just the same problem!
Is it a problem with cookies?
It may be related with the warning: touch( ) issue...
#2
I must have missed this issue from a month back.. anyway, this is definitely a bug in the way it saves the contacts. Will fix it in the next few days.
#3
If the contact list is retrieved again you should clean session variables...
unset($_SESSION['dcl_contacts_new']);
unset($_SESSION['dcl_contacts_existing']);
It's needed to emulate the way the cancel button acts because people doesn't click it, just types a new email to process...
Regards.

Just to clarify...
Are you guys not getting any contacts from the second import? The idea is that you can import from a few different email accounts and then send one message to all of them, instead of having to do each account individually.
I just tested this with two different gmail accounts and it brought in the contacts for both of them.
So when you do the second import, you should have all the contacts from the first import AND the second import.
#5
I see...
Yes it works as you say, you should clarify this a bit, so the final user knows what's happening...
#6
agreed. probably would be good to have an option in the settings page to allow the site admin to control the behaviour as well.
#7
yes, I don't think this is a good idea. it will cause a mess. will be nice if there will be an option.

Hi @hadsie.
I've seen you have added the 'behaviour setting' we discused here... But it does nothing...
I can't see where you get the variable "dcl_importer_cache_contacts" you set in the admin panel.
Is that fixed? or the module is not going to progerss any more because of the merging with contact_importer?
Regards.
#9
yeah, this module may still get some love, but probably not very much. as what time i do have i'd like to focus on contact_importer.
#10
Marking this as won't fix now. I'm deprecating this module in favour of the contact_importer module which I think has quite a nice interface for importing contacts now.
