Trying to send MASS email from Thunderbird. I have the address in a CSV file in a column named Email. I have {{Email}} in the TO: field of the email--and go through File-Mail Merge and have the CSV file in the dialog box. When I click on OK--I get the message that "No recipients were specified..."

Wile we do not support the add-on here. In the interests of expediency. Most issues of this nature with the add-on will relate to how the email heading is set in the CSV file. Make sure it is set as the field name you think it is and that it is enclosed in double quotes. Also check none of your "data" contains quotes as that can send CSV into a spin, introducing what amount to a random heading in the middle of data.

Failing that email the add-on author. His email address is on the add-on download page.
