Bug Description
Mahara: 19.04.0
OS: Linux
DB: Postgres 10.8
Browser: n/a
Since the beginning of Mahara, site admins have always been able to send a message to any user in the system regardless of the user's notification settings.
With the introduction of isolated institutions (in 19.04), this capability has been removed.
It should be re-implemented.

Thanks for your report, Ghada.
To replicate:
1. User A doesn't allow people to send him emails.
2. Site admin goes to User A's profile.
Expected result: Site admin can still send emails.
Actual result:
a) Site admin user can't see "Send message" button on the profile page.
b) Site admin user can see "Send message" button on the "People" page.
This will need to be tested with both isolated institutions turned off and on (config.php setting) and then "See own groups only" setting turned on and off (Admin menu -> Config site -> Site options -> Group settings).
