Thunderbird 102: Show One Recipient per Line When Composing New Email

Thunderbird is a popular email client that allows you to manage your emails efficiently. When composing a new email in Thunderbird, you might have noticed that the recipients' email addresses are displayed in a single line. This can make it difficult to read and edit the recipients' information, especially if you have multiple recipients. Fortunately, there is a simple solution to this problem. In this article, we will guide you on how to configure Thunderbird to show one recipient per line when composing a new email.

Step 1: Open Thunderbird

First, open Thunderbird on your computer. You can find the Thunderbird icon in your applications folder or by searching for it in the Start menu.

Step 2: Access the Thunderbird Options

Once Thunderbird is open, click on the menu button in the top-right corner of the window. It looks like three horizontal lines stacked on top of each other. From the drop-down menu, select "Options".

Step 3: Navigate to the Composition Settings

In the Thunderbird Options window, click on the "Composition" tab on the left-hand side. This will display various options related to composing new emails.

Step 4: Enable the "Show recipients on separate lines" option

In the Composition settings, you will see a checkbox that says "Show recipients on separate lines". Check this box to enable the option. Once enabled, Thunderbird will display each recipient's email address on a separate line when you compose a new email.

Step 5: Save the Changes

After enabling the "Show recipients on separate lines" option, click on the "OK" button to save the changes. Thunderbird will now display one recipient per line when composing a new email.

That's it! You have successfully configured Thunderbird to show one recipient per line when composing a new email. This will make it easier for you to read and edit the recipients' information, especially if you have multiple recipients.

If you ever want to revert back to the default setting where recipients are displayed in a single line, you can simply uncheck the "Show recipients on separate lines" option in the Thunderbird Options.
