I'm among about 140 people who received the same email. I want to include all of those addresses in a new group. Is it possible to create the group without having to manually enter each of the 140 addresses?

Hi  SDGNOM,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to export  list to Excel with all columns in your SharePoint.
For the SharePoint RPC protocol method, SharePoint export to excel will take the list id as well as the view id. So we cannot export list to Excel with all the columns without having to depend on the fields
chosen in the default view.

For a workaround, you can achieve your demand via PowerShell. Here is a  template you can refer to:
Param(
[Parameter(Mandatory=$True)]
[string]$webUrl,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$True)]
[string]$outPath
$web = Get-SPWeb $webUrl
write-host ("Path: " + $outPath)
foreach($list in $web.Lists)
$exportlist = $null
$exportlist = @()
$list.Items | foreach {
$hash = $null
$hash = @{}
foreach($fld in $_.Fields ){
Try {
$hash.add($fld.Title, $_[$fld.Title])
Catch [System.Management.Automation.MethodInvocationException]
# Eating an error caused by duplicate column names.
Finally
#"End"
write-host ("Exported: " + $_.Title)
$obj = New-Object PSObject -Property $hash #@{
$exportlist += $obj
$expath = $outPath + '\' + $list.Title + '.csv'
$exportlist | Export-Csv -path $expath #$oPath
