Group email address #1215

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I want to add an email address to a group instead of a user.

Describe the solution you'd like Allow me to add an email address to a group.

Describe alternatives you've considered I could add fake users but then I would need to remove the email address from every normal user.

Additional context We use mailing lists. The current setup works well but admidio sends the email to all group members instead to the group directly. I would like an option to add an email address to a group and only send to that address instead of the members private addresses.

That feature request doesn't complain to our structure within Admidio. Only users could get email adresses. We don't want a role to store email adresses. If you have group adresses, than you could create a fake user as you suggest.

alright, I will add an addon for our use case. The addon will list an overview of certain groups, the members of such groups and a button for mailto protocol.

Users can click the mail button and send an email to our mailing list instead with their private mail app.
