Ah, now I see the difference and yes, your system makes a lot of sense. We just keep mail-tracking around as some email messages are generated through other packages and you might want to make sure you will find out which mail was send to what user.

Furthermore, you can make good use of mail tracking within contacts by limiting the mails that are displayed in the mail tracking system to only come from the contacts package_id (filter by package_id). I guess the functionality is not there yet, but I will write it then :). This way you won't have to store the mails in your system as well.
