503743 - no "Add to Bcc:" option in Contacts sidebar

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 226468

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Michael E. Miller]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.11) Gecko/2009060215 Firefox/3.0.11
Build Identifier: 2.0.0.22

When composing a new message, the "Contacts" option includes two
choices: "Add to To:" and "Add to Cc:". Old Netscape had an extremely
important third option missing in Thunderbird: "Add to Bcc:". Bcc can
now only be added manually, which is *very* cumbersome. Please restore
this extremely useful option in your next update, very soon, I hope. Thanks.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Simply not an option
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Not an option. Feature omitted from Thunderbird though it was in Netscape.

Expected Results:  
Contacts sidebar should permit "Add to Bcc:" as well as Add to To:" and "Add to CC:"

This feature is NOT implemented in Thunderbird 2.0.0.22. "Add to Bcc:" is NOT an option in "Contacts" and each Bcc must be changed manually from "To" or "Cc". Please update this feature.
