UPDATES an existing contact in a list — this MODIFIES live data. Send only the fields you want to change (email_address, fields, tags, status). contact_id is the MD5 hash of the lowercased email address, or the id from list_contacts. EmailOctopus: PUT /lists/{list_id}/contacts/{contact_id}. Returns the updated contact.
