It will be a little tricky at first, especially if you aren't used to using tables in Word, but after a couple of times, you will be able to fly through the steps. You do that by opening and saving the list in Word, then importing the list to Thunderbird. However, you must first get the list into Thunderbird. If you get a new list of e-mail addresses that don't already exist in your Address Book, you can still create a list using the method above. Double click on the List icon to open it and verify that all the addresses have been added.Click and drag them into the List icon in the left hand windowpane.When you have hightlighted all the addresses in this way, Ctrl-Click (PC) or Apple-Click (Mac) on each additional address. With Personal Address Book highlighted (or Collected Addresses if you have more addresses here), locate the addresses you want to add to your list.In the left hand windowpane, click on the + beside 'Personal Address Book' if that is where you saved the list.

Fill in 'List Name', 'List Nickname' (an easily remembered abbreviation so you type less), and 'Description' (optional).In this tip, we'll cover that simple process, as well as what to do if many of the e-mail addresses are not already in your Address Book. Creating a mailing list from your current Address Book can be as simple as dragging the addresses into a list.
