## Does the "invite by email" feature work?
Yes, but it probably isn't the feature you're looking for. The [invite by email](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/members/#invite-people-using-their-e-mail-address) feature sends an email inviting someone to visit the site and create a GitLab account. Since self-sign up is currently disabled for this instance, the email is useless. Currently we cannot disable this feature in the UI and it's only use is to send a confusing email to someone so it is best avoided.
