expand email alias

ejh1

Thunderbird just updated itself to 60.3.1 on my Windows 8.1 box. When composing an email with the address book side bar (F9) I USED TO be able to add an expanded alias to the recipients. This is important since I tweek the recipients dpending on the content of the outgoing email.

In this latest version, that feature seems to have disappeared. I cannot seem to expand an alias. Is there some other way to do it?

Expaneded Alias:

Let's say I have an alias naemd "Friends" consisting of addresses: bill@a.com, bob@a.com, tom@a.com, mike@a.com, joe@a.com.

If I select the alias then <Friends> is added to the "To" line. Instead, I want the individual names (bill, bob, ...) added to the "To" line. Previous versions of Thunderbird had an explicit option to do this. I think it said something like "Add Expanded".

Your suggestion helps. If I do Ctrl+I I get a list. I can then highlight the list and add them all to the email. Or I could select just those that I want from the list.

But where did the easier feature go?
