I have created a Mail List (25 adds) and it works fine, when I open Thunderbird later the list is gone and I have to create a new one. How do I save lists?

I have been trying to work out how to use email address lists in the past few months.

I recently managed to import all my contacts from Windows Mail on the old PC. They are now in "Address Book", there were a few in "Personal Address Book" but most were in collected Addresses.

When I went into collected addresses and clicked New List it allowed me to create a list of the 25 or so emails required. Then I could send out the email.

The next day I opened Thunderbird to send another email to the same list and it had disappeared.

I have since surmised that you cannot save a list created from Collected addresses in your Personal Address book unless the addresses in the list are in your Personal Address Book.

I will try again now I have completed the import and see if that helps.

Any other ideas would be most welcome.

You really should keep your contacts in your Personal Address Book. You can drag and drop contacts between address books.

When sending a message, and the recipient isn't in your address book yet, Thunderbird automatically adds the recipients email address to Collected Addresses. You can turn that off though.
