Adding a member w/o an email address adds 'Andy Goodell' to the project instead.
Greetings,
Go to View, Members, enter just a name (I chose 'Eric Ott', one of my co workers), and try to add them. It brings up a page which suggests you should fill out more details. If you don't fill out more details (specifically, I didn't add an email address), and just click to add the member, it adds 'Andy Goodell' to the project, instead of Eric Ott.
I don't know if it emailed them or not, but that's a pretty serious bug, one way or another.
I'm trying to demo Pivotal Tracker to my manager, as a tool we could use to manage our backlog, but I don't want to add actual users, so I didn't want to enter their email addresses, just names that I could assign work to as a sample.
Best of luck fixing that bug...it's apparently a YEAR old bug?!? That makes me really nervous about your app.

Inappropriate?Hi Morgan...thanks for reporting this. I did find an accepted story for this bug from a year ago, but it either got re-introduced, or we didn't verify it properly at the time. It's related to Andy not having an email address, somehow. In any case, we'll fix it right away.

Inappropriate?Hi Morgan,
We deployed a fix tonight. We are still investigating how this problem got re-introduced. Just to let you know, no emails were sent out to Andy.
Thanks again for letting us know. -
Inappropriate?Greetings,
Thanks! The bug description eased my concern about spamming this Andy person, since...well, the bug is because they don't have an email address in the system. :)
I figured the fix would be something like disallowing no-email users, but it does make my testing a little more difficult. I'll make do.
Thanks again,

I’m relieved

Inappropriate?Hi guys,
Looks like you're missing a regression test for this, because the problem just happened again for me :-) -
Inappropriate?Hmm the bug that never goes away. We do have regression tests, but it seems we may be missing a specific variation.
Can you share with us how you were able to recreate this problem? -
Inappropriate?Sure thing...

Clicked on 'My Accounts'
Selected 'Manage'
Entered name of person in 'Add Member' under 'Account Owners' section
Clicked 'Add'
Left 'Full Name' and 'Initials' fields as they were, and left the 'Email' field blank.
Clicked 'Add New Member'
Resulted in 'Andy Goodell' being added to the list of account owners, initials 'AG', no 'Email'. 'Invitation' status set to '1 pending (resent)' -
Inappropriate?Thanks for letting us know how to recreate the problem. We fixed the problem on the project member's page (with regression tests) a while back, but somehow we missed the accounts page.
The problem is now fixed on the account's page as well...with regression tests in place. -
