New version of Thunderbird grabs all the address in Mac Mail instead of just address associated with the email account for Thunderbird. Why?

Old version only showed contacts associated with the email address associated with Thunderbird. New version grabs ALL email addresses listed in my Mac Mail address book program. Makes for a huge list if I am looking for a specific person or address. A real Pain! Any way to stop this?
