SUMMARY E-mail addresses of people are harder and harder to get and the avalanche of spam makes e-mail so inefficient as a communications medium that many people prefer using various communicators (where people must be admitted to be allowed to talk) instead. Of course, there were e-mail services with admission too---one notable was Bluebottle, long bankrupt though. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add an attendee without an e-mail address to an appointment! 2. Save the appointment! 3. Open the appointment! OBSERVED RESULT The attendee is not listed. EXPECTED RESULT The attendee should be there.

what does it even mean to have an attendee without email address. you can keep your list of attendees in the description if you don't want to bother them electronically. I'm not seeing a use-case
closing since no use-case
Sometimes there are better ways to let an invited person know, such as using a messenger. I do not suggest that the organiser should be able to automatically notify the invited person by whatever means are preferred by this particular person; however, the operator should be able to open the contact entry for every invited person in order to use the contact URL specified in the contact to notify them by hand. Just making a note that somebody should be invited does not make an actionable element. Additionally, having invited people in two different places, depending on whether this person has an e-mail or not, is so bad UX that I have to enter fake devnull e-mail addresses for everyone who does not use any, just to be able to add them as guests.
