[OFBiz] Users - customers and orders with multiple currencies

Hi Jacopo!

This exception I was getting was actually from sendOrderConfirmation.  
If the customer is not set up with an email, it is causing this 
message.  (I'm not sure why it says 
"layoutEvents.error_call_eventorg.ofbiz.content.webapp.event.EventHandlerException").

So, as I said earlier, the multi currency implementation looks really 
good.  :-)
