If overdues don't run, then people don't get emailed reminders, and then they
get angry when they have a larger fine to pay. I would rather be reminded with
a footnote stating that the amounts may be incorrect if an automatic renewals
failed to run, than get hit with a whack load of fines. Tweak the notice and
use semi-colons. That's my suggestion, because the current koha-foreach logic
is effectively that.
