It's hardly a "feature" when you can do it in less than 10 lines of code.
You want to send it in a "to" list, another one could want to do a "cc",
another one a "cc" with a "ccn" of the 1 user registered and so on......
Let's try to not blow web2py up with those shortcuts.
def send_to_groupname(groupname, **kwargs):
"""
send mail to all peoples in a group
"""
rtn = db(
(db.auth_group.role == groupname) &
(db.auth_membership.group_id == db.auth_group.id) &
(db.auth_user.id == db.auth_membership.user_id)
).select(db.auth_user.email, distinct=True)
tolist = []
for row in rtn:
tolist.append(row.email)
return mail.send(to=tolist, **kwargs)
so, you can do
send_to_group_name('administrator')
