How do I send a message to a specific user using the Microsoft Skype for Business Builder Bot?
I found many tutorials explaining how to respond to a user initiated message like a Skype for Business bot. However, no one initiated a new conversation with the bot.
Proactive messages must have the address saved in some way by first receiving the message from the user (as described here ). Is it possible to initiate a new conversation for a user without prior exchanges?
How do I send a message to a specific user knowing their email address?

It really depends on the channel you are using to publish your bot. If you are using Facebook Messenger or Skype, you need the user to contact the bot first as you stated.
If you are using an email channel, you should check Create your own email at the following link:

However, I don't see a Node sample for this.
