Corruption of email addresses

When using MailMerge in Tb with Windows Excel as data source <{{xxxxx@xxx.com}}> always comes out corrupted. If putting just an email address in the "To:" box all works fine with {{xxxxxxxxx@xxx.com}}. If, as I normally need to do, I precede the email address with the clients name and thus add <................> to the address, the address becomes corrupted. If I do not add the lesser/greater signs the address is just added as an extra piece of text. E.G. {{Forename}} {{Surname}} <{{E-mail Address}} translates as Joseph Bloggs <"\"joebloggs"@sky.com>. Without <> it translates as Joseph Bloggs joebloggs@sky.com. All was fine when using Tb 115.15.0.

Mailmerge is an addon, not developed by the Thunderbird team. I suggest you contact the developer to report your issue. Thank you.
