I have two complaints about the addressbook in thinderbird or two possibities to make it better:

1) I cannot select, copy and past addresses and other info from the addressbook. I first have to click it and open it in the editor.

2) When I make a selection of addresses in the address book the selection dissappears as soon as I opened of the selected addresses or removed one of the addresses in the list. I have to make the selection completely over again.

kind regards, Johan

Can't help with the 2nd issue, but for the first one see this. Note that this works for multiple selections of contacts.
