Add one e\-mail address to the list which is maintained in the group. This
is a wrapper around \fIaddRole()\fR adding flexibility on how addresses
are specified.  An \f(CW$address\fR can be anything which is acceptable for
\&\fIMail::Message::Field::Address::coerce()\fR or a list of options which
will create such an object.

The first argument is an object, but not of a class which extends
User::Identity::Collection.

.IX Item "Error: Cannot create a $type to add this to my collection."
.PD
Some options are specified to create a \f(CW$type\fR object, which is native to
this collection.  However, for some reason this failed.
.ie n .IP "Error: Cannot load collection module for $type ($class)." 4
.el .IP "Error: Cannot load collection module for \f(CW$type\fR ($class)." 4
.IX Item "Error: Cannot load collection module for $type ($class)."
Either the specified \f(CW$type\fR does not exist, or that module named \f(CW$class\fR returns
compilation errors.  If the type as specified in the warning is not
the name of a package, you specified a nickname which was not defined.
Maybe you forgot the 'require' the package which defines the nickname.

.IX Item "Error: Creation of a collection via $class failed."
.PD
The \f(CW$class\fR did compile, but it was not possible to create an object
of that class using the options you specified.
.IP "Error: Don't know what type of collection you want to add." 4
.IX Item "Error: Don't know what type of collection you want to add."
If you add a collection, it must either by a collection object or a
list of options which can be used to create a collection object.  In
the latter case, the type of collection must be specified.
.ie n .IP "Warning: No collection $name" 4
.el .IP "Warning: No collection \f(CW$name\fR" 4
.IX Item "Warning: No collection $name"
The collection with \f(CW$name\fR does not exist and can not be created.
.ie n .IP "Error: Wrong type of role for $collection: requires a $expect but got a $type" 4
.el .IP "Error: Wrong type of role for \f(CW$collection:\fR requires a \f(CW$expect\fR but got a \f(CW$type\fR" 4
.IX Item "Error: Wrong type of role for $collection: requires a $expect but got a $type"
Each \f(CW$collection\fR groups sets of roles of one specific type ($expect).  You
cannot add objects of a different \f(CW$type\fR.
