Send to multiple recipients not in address book
FAQs about sending an email to multiple recipients seem to talk about using names already in one's address book to create a group. I have a text file that contains about 1000 addresses and want to send a one-time message to all of them (with each designed as BCC). How can I move those addresses all together -- or a big batch at a time in several messages -- without involving my address book?

Take a look at this add-on.

Thanks for your quick reply. It seems this add-on is limited to exporting from an address book (see my original post) or from a CSV file (which I'm afraid I'm not familiar with). I have a list of names in a text (.doc) file. Any ideas on how I can get that list moved to an email message?

My suggestion is take off your blinkers. DOC is not a text file. It is a Microsoft word document file. The only chance you have of that being understood by a mail program is if you buy Microsoft Outlook.
Otherwise, become familiar with CSV files (Comma Separated Values) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values. CSV permeates the entire data interchange process, especially address books, but including database data and spreadsheets. CSV files are text files. Real ones! I talk about them a little here. http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2013/03/importing-csv-files.html
If you have Excel installed and double click a CSV file Excel will open the file. I use LibreOffice, but that does not change the fundamentals of the CSV data format.
So I suggest you save your file in Word as "Plain text" and open in in Excel and hope Excel can make heads or tails of it.
