When you select "Send email" & "Send email as BCC" on a contact group your default mail client, Outlook or Thunderbird, the addresses are populated in a way that the mail client can not understand. This makes the feature useless.

  2. Click on 'Send email'
  3. TO: field populated with Email Address 1 <[email protected]>,Email Adress 2 <[email protected]>,Email Address 3<[email protected]>

Additional info
