Description

If I want to invite a new "Friend" (uh, member maybe?) to a VRE,
I insert an email address, click Send invite, and a new widow opens
The text field is empty, but th emessage below looks ok, with the email address
I click send, and an error appears; I have to insert the email in the text field again.
Then it works.

Anton, perhaps you misread it. The new window asks for your friend name, not the email address. If you open the screenshot you attached you'll see it.
The name is asked so that the invited user does not perceive the email as SPAM. I'm closing the ticket, if you think enhancements are required please open another ticket.

I do not want to be pedantic, but this procedure is odd. It "forces" me to make a mistake, and only then it tells me what I need to do.

Maybe change a few things to make that clear; e.g. change "Invite whoever's missing" (we do not invite 'whoever') to
"Add name of new member (obliged):"

and then "The invitation email will be sent to: pipo@pipo.org and you will be in cc. We will only send VRE related emails to contacts. Other VRE members can see and use only the name of the new member."
