Polls: No e-mail notification on poll creation

[mcnesium]

As mentioned in #188 there is some e-mail notification feature with this app. I just created two polls, one shared with another user and one shared with a user group. None of the other participants got any mail notification.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a new poll
2. Select some users to share the poll with
3. Click "Create poll"

Expected behaviour

All selected users should get a mail with the link

Actual behaviour

No mail is being sent

Are you using external storage, if yes which one: local/smb/sftp/...

Are you using encryption: no

Are you using an external user-backend, if yes which one: LDAP/ActiveDirectory/Webdav/...

LDAP configuration (delete this part if not used)

With access to your command line run e.g.:
sudo -u www-data php occ ldap:show-config
from within your Nextcloud installation folder

Without access to your command line download the data/owncloud.db to your local
computer or access your SQL server remotely and run the select query:
SELECT * FROM `oc_appconfig` WHERE `appid` = 'user_ldap';


Eventually replace sensitive data as the name/IP-address of your LDAP server or groups.

[mcnesium]

There are mail notifications sent out to the creator, if there are comments or participations on the poll.

[splitt3r]

So this is a feature request to let all participants receive email notifcations?

[mcnesium]

If this is not implemented yet, then yes.

[splitt3r]

Will have a look at it.

[dartcafe]

Something, we should inspect together with things like invitations and intergration with circles.

[prsnbrg]

It is possible over the notification app from ownCloud and nextCloud to notify all participants if they log in?

[dartcafe]

Notification will be added in similar ways (notification app, circles, email, ...).
