Smart Mail Groups not working after Catalina installation (multiple machines)
Cannot use smart group names when addressing mail message. mail does not appear to recognize any of the old groups. Similar to problems in prior upgrades.

OK, there is hope! Here is a work around which will get you going until Apple fixes this problem properly.
Create a new Group and copy all the cards from your Smart Group to the new Group. Then add the new Group to the BCC on your email. It works. Simply select all of your Smart Group email names (e.g. select the top one then hold the shift key down and select the last one) then slide these selected cards into your new Group with your mouse. This will make the new Group match your Smart Group. It seems that Groups are working properly but Smart Groups are not. This is not overly time consuming. Good luck everyone. . . . Earle
Same issue - smart groups not working. This is a big problem!
So we are now at 8th Dec and still no answer to the problem? This is a complete PAIN
I have a Smart Group I use continually and have no wish to enter 43 names each time ...
Apple?!
same issue here ... multiple Macs ...new installs ....all updated ... tried new groups ...no luck
apple respond ????
This is the most helpful response I've found, so thanks.
Still frustrating that Apple won't roll out a fix.
Same here... Still no fix for this? What a pain...
I did what someone else suggested: copied the entirety of an existing Smart Group into a new ordinary group and then I could use it so short term fix but want the Smart Groups to work again as the constituents will change - that’s the point of them, surely
