Looks like the right place to ask to me! Others might benefit from

What a great idea!

As I understand it, if the team has no contact address listed at
https://launchpad.net/~zimbabwe-team under "Team details Email:" I
_believe_ that when you click 'Contact team' the mail you send goes to
_everyone_ on the team. You might want to check that with some
launchpad people in #launchpad or maybe someone else here knows.

Second option (which is a bit nasty) would be to expire each person
and then add them back into the team. When you do that you get a field
in which you can put some text. You could put a little apology for the
bounce, and some questions or an offer for them to get in touch with
you.

Last option would be to go and hunt them down via other means :) Look
them up on the forums and use a bit of common sense to see if it's the
same person. I note the team in question has about 30 people which
doesn't seem too many to track down.

Maybe someone else has a better suggestion?

Cheers,
Al.
