Allow use by anonymous visitors

Problem/Motivation

Currently, the module can only notify authenticated users on the site. Is there any plan to allow anonymous users to receive notifications by storing their contact information (e.g., email address)?

For me, this renders this module unusable as visitors never register accounts on the website.

    Hello endless_wander,
    i had a similar issue then I saw this https://www.drupal.org/node/2180227 β†’
    and this is how I solve this issue

       $owner_email = $entity->field_email->value;
        $message = Message::create(['template' => 'new_user_register_for_user']);
        $message->save();
        // use this options array with the mail key if you want to send it to user who is not yet registered but you have his email
       // for contact us form or similar use case 
        $options =['mail' => $owner_email ];
        // Send a message to email directly.
        $notifier->send($message, $options);

    You might be able to get the Message stack to send emails to anonymous users. But Message stack really is not the best choice.

    You want something like Simple News β†’ .
