Thunderbird release 31.3 messes up auto-complete (suggesting incorrect options) and changes email addresses even once selected. How can we fix this?!?

more options

Prior to release 31.3, when I compose an email and start typing the first character it would pop up a list of my contacts in alphabetical order, and I could select one, and hit enter to open a new line. Following the update to version 31.3, when I compose an email and start typing the first character, the drop-down list of email addresses are no longer in alphabetical order, such that it provides options that make no sense with the first character I typed. In addition, when I finally find the email address I'm looking for and select it, then I hit enter to open a new line, and it changes the email address I just selected to another contact. How do we fix this issue? I want the old Thunderbird back!!! Or, at least, I want the new version to function correctly. Please help!
