[ic] Order Status Getting Wiped

[Jon]

    Running IC 4.8.5

    From the Order Status page if you click the button to email the
person with
the order information it will overwrite anything that was previously in
the status field
such as a shipping tracking number.  Is there some configuration work
around for this ?

Scenario:  Set a tracking number in the status field so it shows up as a
UPS tracking
URL link which works great.  If you follow that setting with a click to
email the consumer
then that status field is automatically set to Shipped and the tracking
number is wiped out.
