I have Thunderbird set to automatically bcc my address and often send articles and other things I find on the web to myself. Previously, I just changed Bcc to To because the fields were not fised. Now, I have to drag the fixed bcc field up to the fixed To field. This is not a huge problem when I'm using a keyboard, although it is annoying nevertheless. The bigger problem is when I access my computer using TeamViewer from my phone and cannot drag and drop. I have to type my address into the To field, then delete the Bcc field. This is a major annoyance. Any chance that it could be changed back?

Simply right-click your address in the Bcc field and choose Move to To and you're done.

Incredible, thank you Stans! It was so obvious (Not!) I can't imagine how I missed it. Very grateful.
