new version of thunderbird (60.0) has screwed up addressing emails, not showing correctly who the recipient is.

also irritating is manually sort folders no longer works.

sent 3 copies of an email to 3 different people at the same email address. all three are listed in my address book. all 3 arrived (as a single email) but all 3 showed the same recipient at destination. they showed the correct name and address at my end when i sent the emails.

response from my test email...

when i received the response is showed the sender to be inaccurately the first of the three in my address book, not the actual sender. whenever i receive a message from this sender, it incorrectly shows the wrong person from the correct address

thanks for the suggestion, matt, but the problem remains. emails are always directed to the same individual. i can send to 1, 2 or 3 different people at the same email address and they all go to the same individual. they are sent as one email, not individual emails to the recipients. recipient names (same name) shows after To: joe smith, joe smith, etc
