           $countryOptions = $dataCountry->find('list', array(
                'order' => 'name asc'
            ));
            $this->controller->set('countryOptions',$countryOptions);
            
            $emailList = $emailAddress->find('list', array(
                'conditions' => '`EmailAddress`.`account_id` = '.$this->controller->Common->getSessionAccountId(),
