User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100423 Ubuntu/10.04 (lucid) Firefox/3.6.3

In Thunderbird 2 I was able to enter multiple addresses on the "To:" line, separated by commas.
In Thunderbird 3 this no longer works.
eg:
In TB2 I could enter:
To: dad, mom, tom, dick, harry
When I hit the Tab key, the cursor would move down to the message body pane, and all of the addresses in the To: field would be split onto separate lines and converted to their appropriate entries in the Address Book, so it would look like:
To: "dad" <dads.address@dads.domain.com>
To: "mom" <moms.address@moms.domain.com>
To: "Tom Smith" <tom@this.domain.com>
To: "Dick van Head" <****@that.domain.com>
To: "Harry Armepitte" <harry@the.other.domain.com>
Now, in Version 3.0.4, if I enter the same thing on the "To:" line, when I hit tab the cursor still moves to the message body pane, and the addresses still split onto multiple "To:" lines, but the addresses don't seem to get looked up in the Address Book anymore: the names on the multiple lines don't get converted, it just looks like:
To: dad
To: mom
To: tom
To: dick
To: harry
...and all the names are colored red.
If I try to send the e-mail like that it has errors.
So if I want to send to multiple recipients, I have to type one recip into the To: field, hit tab for it to do the Address Book lookup and convert the nickname into a proper address, then manually click the next "To:" field.
This definitely doesn't seem like an "upgrade feature" so I assume it's a bug.
Thanks,
Scott

3. Hit tab
4. Shake fist in frustration
Actual Results:
