Can't add more than one cc recipient

I have just now set up the new version of Thunderbird. I must have made some mistake in setting up my new account. I can enter the "to" from my address book but cannot figure out how to send "cc" to multiple addresses. I can send with one cc recipient but can't figure out how to include multiple cc recipients.

I love Thunderbird - it is a great email system.

As you can guess from such a fundamental question, I am quite elderly and not a teckie.

Any chance that one of the youngsters among your volunteers can help an old man out?

Yes, just type a COMMA then the next email to be CC'd . Neat, huh?

My disability prevents me from reading along long lines of complex type. Therefore, your "easier to use" format prevents me from using Thunderbird the way I need to when sending the same email to many people.

How do I remove this update so that I, as a disabled person, can still send several cc'd emails that fall one underneath the other? That is the only way I can proof who is in my email lists.

I suggest that you alert users to the drastic changes you make in your software before we "update" our software for supposed security reasons. This uninformed format change has put a screeching halt to this disabled person's ability to do her work.

I was stunned by the responses your support people gave to those who did not like the new formatting. So disrespectful. I certainly hope I do not receive such abusive responses.
