Hi. I have managed to import contacts into an address book and can select all contacts in the address book but I can find no way to put them straight into the BCC field for a mail shot. They always go into the TO FIELD. Can you help please

Hello

I suggest you try the Cardbook add-on. You can import all contacts from the existing address book, although you may have to recreate the lists. However, you will find that it can do the thing you want and some more.
