I have created an email list in Thunderbird. It works fine, but I cannot see a way of editing it. I need to remove one bouncing email address already, but over time I will also need to add more names, and probably to delete some too. I am sure with people who run groups of some kind this must be common. How do I edit please?

If you select it in your Address Book then you'll see the contents listed in a pane where you can delete member contacts.

If you double click your Mailing List its editor will open where you can both add and remove member contacts.

Right-click then Properties will also get you into the editor.

Actually, you can do an awful lot in Thunderbird via the right-click. When in doubt...
