How do I copy TO-addresses from a text list of email recipients, all at once?
How do I copy from a text list of email recipients all at once, ie.,
dan@hotmail.com;bob@coldmail.com;sue@lukewarmmail.com
I want to copy the WHOLE LIST at once from a saved text file, not one address at a time. I need to copy about 40 names!
That was easy in Outlook Express, just cut & paste the list above into the TO line.
When I do that in T-Bird and send the email, I get back a failure notice "We do not allow e-mail routing in addresses."

There should be a comma between addresses. Then it works
dan@hotmail.com,bob@coldmail.com,sue@lukewarmmail.com

Thanks Gnospen, but when I tried that the emails got returned with the message;
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<",bob"@coldmail.com>
(reason: 550 Syntax error. RCPT TO address may not contain special characters, see RFC 5322 section 3.2.3)
In other words, it put the comma at the front of the actual email address and tried to send it that way.
I tried adding spaces before and after each comma but it didn't work.
Gnospen's example works perfectly for me, so there is something else going on. Do you have display names in with the addresses?
Did you press return to parse them all into one address per line format?
Did not have display names with addresses.
But I did NOT press Return after pasting all the addresses, I just pressed Send.
Tried it your way, seems to have worked but I'll wait for a dearth of bounces!
Thanks.
I can replicate the double quote.
A text file. If the string is too long, it may be separated into multiple lines with <cr><lf>'s. They are creating the double-quotes. Remove the <cr><lf>'s and have a single long string containing all of the email addresses each separated by a comma. Two commas with nothing in between can also cause an issue with the following email address which then thinks it starts with a comma and so is invalid.
