Bug 83251 for thunderbird.

In the section "3.4. Address Specification" of RFC 2822, address is defined as
the following:

address         =       mailbox / group
mailbox         =       name-addr / addr-spec
name-addr       =       [display-name] angle-addr
angle-addr      =       [CFWS] "<" addr-spec ">" [CFWS] / obs-angle-addr
group           =       display-name ":" [mailbox-list / CFWS] ";"
                        [CFWS]
display-name    =       phrase
mailbox-list    =       (mailbox *("," mailbox)) / obs-mbox-list
address-list    =       address *("," address) / obs-addr-list


Example is shown in the section "A.1.3. Group addresses" of RFC 2822.

From: Pete <pete@silly.example>
To: A Group:Chris Jones <c@a.test>,joe@where.test,John <jdoe@one.test>;
Cc: Undisclosed recipients:;
Date: Thu, 13 Feb 1969 23:32:54 -0330
Message-ID: <testabcd.1234@silly.example>


It is very useful and many users hope to support it.
Please support RFC 2822 group list for composeing messages.
