Value Objects Vs Entities

Quick question... When approaching something like an email address the immediate idea is to treat this as a value object.

If we have a number of entities though, say a customer, a contact, and a supplier that are referencing the same email address, it is conceivable that when we change a customer's email address we may want the customer's contact, and they may be a supplier too, have that email change reflected with those entities as well. Am I correct in thinking this is giving the email address identity so it should now be represented as an entity?开发者_如何学Python
