How do I add contacts from my Address Book to a new email message in the To: location of Thunderbird? I have made many different attempts and some have worked but it doesn't seem very intuitive to add my contacts or groups of contacts from my address book to my new email message in the "To:" location of Thunderbird?

I also don't see any mention of how to do it in any help files. I can't believe everyone else remembers and types in each addresses to their emails they send out! Or, maybe I don't know the correct computereese name for it all! FYI: I'm not interested in setting up a Vcard.vcf system.

I would like to know what help file to find the "How to select and copy contacts to a new Email message..."

Please, would someone help me with this problem?

Open a Write window. Press F9 to turn on the Contact Pane.

You can also type names or addresses into address fields and get suggestions. Select from the selections.

Here is a guide that might help. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/addressing-email

Personally I would forget the Help files and use Google.

Airmail, You solved my problem perfectly, Thank you. The F9 key did the trick and everything unfolds from there. I also copied the 'addressing-email' help file you recommended that appears to have more user Information and will read it tomorrow. (Time I get to bed.)

It is these small stumbling blocks that can really hold one back from gaining the usefulness of a program. As an old geezer, I wasn't brought into computer use in my early years so it doesn't take much to stumble.

Again, Thank you ever so much. BullMoose
