Import of Lead or Contact records with an asignment rule to trigger an email.

Hello all,

I appologize if this has been answered before in another thread but quite frankly I was not able to find an absolutly definitive answer.  We have noticed that when importing Lead and Contact records into SFDC via the API (8.0) and an associated assignment rule that sends an email to the newly added Lead or Contact the email is never sent.  I have noticed that this functionality was not enabled in previous releases of the API, but I have been unable to confirm or deny this functionality in 7.0 or above.  Has this been enabled since 7.0?

Thank you all,
Jason D. Peterson

IIRC you can use the EmailHeader to get these emails sent with the 8.0 (or higher) api.
