Comment 1 for bug 1901726

I am confirming the problem with the Default Phone Number. If Phone is checked as the default hold notification preference and there is no Default Phone Number entered, it should still save as long as there is a Daytime Phone. It shouldn't be necessary for staff to have to enter the phone number twice if they are the same number (which they *usually* are).

Although I see the point about the email address, I don't necessarily agree. I think if Email is selected as a hold notification preference default, it should require the email address to be stored. We use the email address for a lot of different types of notifications other than hold notices, but if a patron really doesn't want it to be stored in their record and receive those other notices, they still have the option of checking the email box and entering their email address at the time of hold placement.
