Customers have mirrored their email groups (example would be a company-all-hands@company.com email list) to Box Groups. Their users typically type in the email address itself in order to attempt to collab the group onto content, but since the email address is not associated with a user, and we can't tie an email address to a Box Group, it sends a pending invite to that email address to create an account (which won't get created and doesn't work).

The request: I suspect linking an email address to a Box Group is a non-starter from a product standpoint. Because of that, we came up with an ask to make it more apparent that when a user types in a company email into the share modal, it is more clear that they are inviting an email address with a company domain that is not associated with an existing Box account or group. If there could be more than just the 'External User' globe next to the email once you finish typing it in (like a popup message they need to click through) that would suffice for making it clear a user is inviting an email address without a Box account.
