[SOLVED] Thunderbird annoyance - multiple email recipient fields / lines

Post by flyingrhino »

Yet another annoyance in TB :
When you write an email you can use commas to separate multiple recipients in the TO / CC / BCC fields. Awesome. Just like outlook (which uses semi colons but doesn't matter).

...But - when you REPLY ALL , TB goes and expands the list to a whole series of single recipient per line. Very annoying.
Does anyone know a setting or addon that shows all TO recipients in one line, all CC in another line ?

Look at it this way, you receive an email where 20 people are cc, but you only want to respond to 4 of them ! Now spend the next two minutes clicking away to sort it out.

BTW, in this post
viewtopic.php?f=47&t=218322#p1143176
I talk about displaying the list properly in read mode. But not in reply mode :(

Any suggestions?
