Thunderbird alters the first email address in a group of 5 or more when it is sent.
I have two group emails which experience the same event. I have two computers which use Thunderbird 45.6.0, separately downloaded and installed at different times. and this happens from emails sent from either computer. The group will consist of 5 or more emails. An example. I will send an email to the following group.
Joeseph.McCarthy@gmail.com,uggamuggah441@gmail.com,Harglunthorrible@roadrunner.com,Theevilone@icloud.com,greatgooglymoogly21@blackbox.com
Thunderbird will render it on the email as: SorryBunch<Joeseph.McCarthy@gmail.com,uggamuggah441@gmail.com,Harglunthorrible@roadrunner.com,Theevilone@icloud.com,greatgooglymoogly21@blackbox.com>
The email will then "bounce" (delivery failure) with the following change to the address: SorryBunch<Joeseph.McCarthy@gmail.co,uggamuggah441@gmail.com,Harglunthorrible@roadrunner.com,Theevilone@icloud.com,greatgooglymoogly21@blackbox.com>
You will notice that the first address is changed from "com" to "co." It will always happen on the first address. The rest are delivered normally. I have put a "throw away" address on each group for the first address, so the bouncing does not cause an email to fail to arrive to anyone, but it is obvious that this is happening when the email is transmitted.
The email in the "Sent" folder shows no such change. The first indication of a change is when I get a "Delivery Failure." This does not happen with other email programs (like gmail) running off the same computers using the same group addresses and going through the same internet provider.
This does not happen to other email addresses, or groups of fewer than 5 email addresses.
What is happening?

I don't know what is happening here, but stacking addresses serially between commas is not the anticipated nor the advised mode of use. (How do you put them there? Pasted from a text file? Typed in by hand? {crazy!} Thunderbird's Address Book won't help you when you stack them like this.))
The tool provided in Thunderbird for repeat addressing to a group is the Mailing List. Maybe you don't like Mailing Lists, or want to vary the list make up. In this case, I'd suggest that having entered your quaint list of addresses, press return, and it will be parsed into one per line format. It would be surprising then if it damaged any addresses since you'd be using Thunderbird as it is designed to be used.
But the best way to avoid this is not to put all your addresses in one line.

Thank You The entire address book on each computer was imported directly from a prehistoric Eudora system which got its last upgrade when I installed Windows ME (and had been imported onto 3 previous computers). The comma-separated list is how Eudora rendered it into Thunderbird. The address books performed flawlessly for everything else, it was only those long lists. I have figured out the Mailing Lists and converted one list on each computer to make sure it works. So far, it looks like it works perfectly, so I'll convert the rest within a day or two. The fact that the lists worked at all, with only the single problem on the first address, is quite a testimony to Thunderbird's robustness.
