This is not a bug: default behaviour for services is opt-in: you have an add-on service disabled by default. And to add an email to a group you have to use "Email addresses" panel. But in user page, email is enabled by default, and users expect to have same behaviour for groups and it's also the more comfortable behaviour
The solution for this issue is: enable email by default also for groups.
