[BUG]Alfresco sending multiple emails depending on the number of user in a group

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I added a javascript to send an email to a particular group whenever a site is created but the problem is if the group has three members each will receive three mails. If there is 250 members each will receive 250 emails. I dont know what is the problem.

Here is my javascript

var parent = space.getParent();
var siteGroup = "GROUP_EMAIL_CONTRIBUTORS";
var mail = actions.create("mail");
var url = "http://pc1:8080/share/page/site/" + document.properties.name + "/dashboard";
mail.parameters.to_many = siteGroup;
mail.parameters.subject="New Site Created in Community"
mail.parameters.text="Click http://pc1:8080/share/page/site/" + document.properties.name + "/dashboard to join the site"
//execute action against a document
mail.execute(document);

Yeah. I can replicate this problem on my local environment.
I need to know how many users are you holding in the group EMAIL_CONTRIBUTORS. If it's very less, then you can use the below code as a work around:

var mail = actions.create("mail");

 var node = people.getGroup("GROUP_EMAIL_CONTRIBUTORS");
    
    if(node){
       var members = people.getMembers(node);         
    }
  mail.parameters.subject=" A new site called" + document.properties.name+"is created"; 
 mail.parameters.text="Login to share to join the site";
 
 for(var i=0;i<members.length;i++)
 {
  mail.parameters.to = members.properties.email;
 //execute action against a document
 mail.execute(document);
 }
