User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-AT; rv:1.8.1.13) Gecko/20080313 SeaMonkey/1.1.9 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-AT; rv:1.8.1.13) Gecko/20080313 SeaMonkey/1.1.9 I want to send different informations to different persons, wich use the same mail adress. For that, I created different cards for those persons. e.g. "john smith <abc@t-online.de>" and "mary smith <abc@t-online.de>". So they can see/understand, wich information ist for wich person. When I do this in a mailing list (window "adress book", funktion "new list" insert names --> return), then seamonkey overwrites one of the two adresses in the mailing list, two equal inserts exist afterwards. --> It would be very useful, if I could use that funktion. Can you help ? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: see above Actual Results: see above Expected Results: see above manage inserts in mailing lists as different cards
