User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; hu; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3 Build Identifier: version 2.0.0.0pre (20070403) Now TDB I can edit or paste email addresses in two mode: - use first editbox, write an address, use enter, and paste/write new - use first editbox, write/paste all addresses to in it It is very good in some cases, but hateable in others. The third mode needed I think. In this mode all of the addresses are merged by type (cc, bcc, and so on), and one editbox used to edit for every type of mail addresses. Example - normal way: to: jano@budapest.hu to: noe@israel.org cc: ali@bagdad.ir bcc: johann@nurnber.de bcc: kalima@india.com Showed as: to: jano@budapest.hu, noe@israel.org cc: ali@bagdad.ir bcc: johann@nurnber.de, kalima@india.com First good thing: This mode I simply change my types with copy-paste. If I use addr. groups, and I wrote an email the use 100 men with "to", but later I need to change them to "bcc", I need to change every of them one-by-one. But in this mode I can copypaste them, as in Google Mail. Second good thing: This mode is makes easy to implement a trick I call "Extract address groups I used in mail". Many times I got mails what I want to forward, but the sender is a member in my dest. group. So: I need to decide what I do. 1.) Send it simply. In this way the sender is got his/her mail back. 2.) I copypaste all of the group members except this one. 3.) I Send Later the mail, open it, and remove this member. But in this editing mode I can use (recursive) extraction (because of group in group), and tdb is sorted the addresses to editboxes in way that aviod multiple addresses. Third good thing: I can simply rejoin my addresses after the tdb splitted (separated) them. Example: I need to send many mails with Gmail Web, but my addresses are in a group. I open a new mail, paste and extract the group, and simply recopy it to gmail. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
