Mailsmith 2.2.1 (292) USELESS new Addressing interface - Jean-Luc

I need to add that Multi addressing can be acheived but you need to launch the Apple Address Book Application and from it's window, you can command click on a bunch of names and drag them anywhere TO, CC or Bcc in Mailsmith. This works in Tiger and Leopard alike.

You CANNOT do a multi select and drag from Mailsmith Address picker, only from Apple Address book window directly which implies that you have both application open at the same time !

This is a workaround and not the right way to access addresses within mailsmith !

Conclusion I have to stick to my original comment which are fully valid, the implementation of accessing Apple address book DATA from within Mailsmith address picker is offering VERY limited functionality and greatly reduce the efficiently of the previous version 2.1.5 addressing flexibility.

Having to open 2 applications (Mailsmith + Apple Address Book) to do multi addressing through command click on a bunch of names to drag them to the proper field in Mailsmith, is just a big NO NO for volume users.

That's why I was saying POORLY, WRONGLY implemented .

May be the developer could consider adding a find button to open directly the Apple Address book in the addressing window, instead of the mailsmith address picker which has too much limitations as it is.
