Contacts email address does not update contact in group. Is it supposed to update email addresses in a group?

If, when you create the group, you drag (see note) addresses into the Group window or let addresses you enter auto-complete, they will be linked to the address book entries and will update when you update the address book entry. If, on the other hand, the group is created by script or by manually typing the full address of the recipient, then the entry in the group won’t be tied to any matching Address Book entries and, therefore, won’t update along with changes to the address book. You can tell whether a group entry is tied to the Address Book by the icon next to the group entry. If the address entry in the group has the little blue-dressed man, then the entry is tied to the Address Book. If it has a yellow “@” sign, then it is not. Note: Dragging is not the only method. If you click Remove (not delete) those “blue dot” contacts, click Add, and then re-type a few letters of their name (first or last), they will appear in an auto-complete list. Press Return and the contact will appear
