I'd advise against as sending it as "From ALUG" but instead ask people who wish their names to be added to tell you, so it can be "From ALUG Members x y z..." Like many free software projects, ALUG doesn't exist as a formal organisation, and none of the original members has tried to enforce a trademark, so there's not any way to represent the group as a whole.
