How do I forward received emails to several people in my contact list?

With other e-mail providers, when I have received an e-mail I wish to share (or have generated a new one) I have always clicked the 'forward' button before selecting the names of intended recipients from my address book and clicking 'send'. It's normally so easy.

                 With Thunderbird, after clicking 'forward' and starting to type my list of intended recipients, the addresses in the 'to', 'cc' or 'bcc' list turns from black to red on the address line as I add more names and the email goes only to the first name on the list.     I've tried clicking on 'forward', bringing up my address book and using the 'control' button to highlight names from list as recipients but, on completion, I cannot find an 'add' or 'send' button to click and clicking on 'write' sees the body of the email disappear.

Chosen solution

Normally when you add a recipient to,cc or bcc there should open a new line. so you can add another. You can also make a list in your address book and add that list.

Does it work that way for you?
