When I hit reply to an email, a name of someone OTHER than the person who wrote me is already in the to: line.

So an email arrives and I read it. I want to reply so I click on reply or reply all. When the reply opens, a name is already in the to: line but it isn't the person/persons who sent me the message and to whom I want to reply. I have to delete the name/s and re-enter the correct one/s. It is usually the name of the last person I wrote to before this particular email arrived.

This does not seem to happen when I use Internet Explorer so I'm thinking its a Firefox issue.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's a web browser.

If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support. http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/support/
