Subject: [PATCH] Fix customer email inputs to allow comma-separated addresses

type="email" triggers jQuery Validate's email rule which rejects commas,
blocking multi-address input despite the multiple attribute. Switching to
type="text" defers validation to the server-side SplitEmails/MailAddress
logic in the DTO which already handles comma-separated lists correctly.
