Hi, I am using Thunderbird 91.7.0 64bit email. Up until last week I could send emails to multiple addresses via BCC with no problem. This week for some reason I can't, I just get an error message. However, if I send an email to the same people individually it sends ok. I like Thunderbird, but I am fast losing patience with it. There just seems to be too many bugs.

Chosen solution

what solution? Given the forum is full of folk, with a similar issue that basically have email supplied by Yahoo and sending with a To: address fixes it for Yahoo. I am interested if your solution is the same or if there is more than one thing at play.

Any solution?

Sending of the message failed.

The message could not be sent using Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.mail.yahoo.com for an unknown reason. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again.
