Please Help, doesn't work. When i press mail merge it appears error message "invalid recipient address" and i can't go to the windows where i can choose the .csv file. Last May worked perfectly. Thunderbird v. 78.7.1 (64-bit) and mail merge v. 7.3.1

Found this solution: You must hit "Enter" or "Tab" once you have added the variable(s) in the To field.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (7.3.1).

Excellent extension that works as advertised.

Small improvement would be to allow the use of a single variable in the email field such as {{dest}}. For now it's impossible and you need to use 2 variables so the syntax is accepted by Thunderbird {{name}}<{{email}}> does work. The problem only arises in Windows, single variable use does work in Xubuntu.

Other suggestion: could you please make MailMerge useable from command-line ? I have my CSV ready, template ready, attachements ready, all batch... and then need to set all settings manually in MailMerge GUI... I would love to be able to populate the Outbox automatically in "send later" mode from the command line... just having to check if all is fine.

Opening the right MailMerge template is already possible from the command line using the "thunderbird -mail <id>" option... but massing the few required MailMerge options is missing (source type, source file, attach or none,...) That would be so great ! (Or the ability to record these MailMerge settings in the email template metadata and load it automatically on mail merge?)

Thanks anyway! Really love it !

This extension is so mindblowing awesome. I switched back to Thunderbird after many years and this was exactly what I needed to make my life much easier. So far, it works like a charm and gives many options even for variable attachments.
That will definitly earn a donation an 6 starts!

Quick to setup and does what it should do, perfectly ! Easy to understand interface and well written instructions.

Kudos to the developer..

Suggestion : Could include a log file confirming which mail IDs have processed and which have skipped (due to any reason, like erratic email id formatting, missing etc.).......
