[MM3-users] Question about adding addresses using the REST API

Mailman3 experts --

It is clear from many aspects of the documentation that mailman3 may have addresses in its database that are not connected to any user. I would like to create such addresses using the REST API.

The REST API documentation does not suggest this is possible, nor does trying an obvious POST request to the addresses collection work (returns a 405 error).

The only way I've found to create addresses with the REST API is to create users.

The only way I've found to create a standalone address (not linked to any user) is to create a user with that address, unlink the address, then delete the user.

Is there a more straightforward way to just create an address with no user?

Thanks!
