First, annoying.  Starting a new message, the Send button is grayed out *IF* there is anything in the Bcc field. As I normally Bcc myself on all messages, this hits every time.  Clearing the field, re-enables the Send button.  Refilling the Bcc field does NOT cause the Send button to go gray.

When you say "anything" in the Bcc field do you mean valid as well as invalid email addresses?  If I enter nothing in To or Cc but I put an invalid email address in Bcc I will get a RED indication in Bcc with an alert and Send will be disabled.  If I then add a vaild email in To, Send will be enabled.  Hitting Send will bring up a dialog box telling me that I need to correct the invalid email address
before sending will work.

I'm set up to default my own address in the Bcc field on all messages. On an original message, deleting my address from Bcc clears the Send button; on a reply, nothing clears it. In either case, I cannot actually send a message, even when the Send button appears enabled, as Send does nothing.


Fourth, and a major problem, my Address Book has disappeared. The data appears to still be there, as I can start typing an address and have it auto-completed, but the address book itself appears empty, and can't be opened for browsing.

You should then check ~/.thunderbird/(your profile)/abook.* for proper ownership and permissions.  Should
all be owned by you and -rw-r--r--.

There are no such files. However, starting to enter an address that I know was in the address book is auto-completed, so it would appear the address book data is still there somewhere; it just can't be browsed or searched or otherwise seen by human eyes.

Having downgraded Thunderbird to version 78, I can now send messages; address auto-complete fails, so the address book data would appear to be inaccessible. Perhaps version 91 did some conversion on the old address book that can't be reversed by downgrading.
