Resolution

The new Emails implementation in Sugar 7.10 includes additional files. Any existing custom files that were created to customize previous versions of Sugar's Emails module cannot use the same names as these new stock files.

In this example, the EmailsApiHelper.php file along with any references to the file can be renamed to customEmailsApiHelper.php.
