when I select an address for my "To Field" is encased with <> symbols and send rejects as invalid email address?
Something changed?? When I select an email address out of my address book, the email address in the "To Field" appear like this <john@mail.com> with the < & > symbols colored red. When trying to send it replies that this is not a valid email address. Probably something dumb I did but can't seem to fix or repair.

Your email ID saved without the name, so only it showing like < >.
The color red indicates, the address not saved in the email field in your address book.
When you import your address book from gmail, if you have more than one email ID saved in a particular name, then thunderbird saves the emails in the field name of "others".
The rejected/failed email is <xxxx@mail.com>
I think you will have an embedded space inside those brackets, which causes the brackets to appear most of the time
