Is there a way for TB to track date of creation and date of last used for email addresses? To remove invalid addresses?

I have many accumulated addresses in TB 102.11.0 (64-bit). Some are decades old. Many contain only an email address but no first and last name.

Is there a link that so that I can systematically check and delete those that are no longer valid. For example a person may have been a student in the 1990s and that email address is no longer valid.

Are there plans to add more fields such as date the entry was created, the last date I received from that address, and the date I sent to that address.

There are so many accumulated address because LISTSERV and other lists include the list as the sender AND the name & email of the person who posted to the list.

While I sympathize with the issue, the answer is just no.

You might want to put an idea forth in the feedback forum with regard to the dates on address records. https://connect.mozilla.org

You could export everything to a CSV file and import that to a spreadsheet to do some mass deletions if you think the address books is not up to the need and then reverse the process.

You could also start a new address book. My collected address book has contact I have sent emails to, my personal address book has those I actually manually added. Yours would be much the same, so just dump the collected one, and start again as that should really be the more casual contacts.
