Description

It would be great if mails could be sent to circles.
If the name of the circle is entered in the "To" field, it should be selectable like groups.
For privacy the same sharing settings should be used as for groups. If "Restrict users to only share with users in their groups" is checked, this should restrict sharing to own circles, too.

Research direction

Start with the mail composer’s "To" field and the existing group-recipient and sharing-restriction behavior, then consult the linked Circles documentation. Done means circle names can be selected as recipients and the existing group privacy setting also restricts sharing to the user’s own circles.
