Inactive Contacts
Good day,I have a lot of contacts in my Opera Mail account, and now i have to send a message to all of them.
But some of the contacts are old and might be not used by the owner(or closed and etc.). Shortly - inactive.
Can something be done for Opera to send the message to all the contacts ignoring/moving on from inactive contacts, just informing f.e. in error panel which contact in inactive.
Or maybe Opera does that, I might just not have patience ???

In the contacts panel, create a folder and put those inactive contacts in it. Then, when you click the drop-down next to the To field in the compose tab and choose the top-level "add all contacts in folder", contacts from that folder won't be inserted.
You can also right-click on a contact, goto "follow/ignore" and choose "ignore contact". That will exclude that contact from auto-complete when you're typing in the To field.
Or, you can just delete the inactive contacts.
I think that's all you can do.
You can remove the email address from the contact so it's not listed in the drop-down next to the To field, but Opera (incorrectly imo) will insert "name <>" into the field if you use "add all contacts in folder".

Oh, you'll have to figure that out yourself by asking the contact or trying to send a message to that contact and see if it bounces back.
