Problem/Motivation

#3232943: Send notifications only to users who can view content implemented a change where emails are not sent unless the user being sent to has access to view the entity.

I think this should be conveyed in the form prominently. It's otherwise frustrating to debug why emails are not being sent.

I also think this change should not affect the adhoc emails. Sometimes a listserv email/group email is used for adhoc emails. Emails to those addresses are delivered to many individuals that DO have access to view the content, but the email is never sent. The only solution is to register an account on the site with that email address and assign it privileges to view the content, but that's not really desireable in all situations.
