In mail, keep cursor in "to" field

Pretty basic question re: the Mail "to:" field (but it's annoying me!). At present as soon as I enter an address to receive an email the cursor moves to the BC field; how do I change that so it stays in the "to" field and only goes to BC when I enter return or otherwise click on the BC field?

Thanks.

Using Monterey 12.0.1, Mail 15.0

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

Solved it! Between you, the two replies got me paying more attention to what I'm doing when entering email addresses, so I realise that I was – by force of habit in "another email client app" that I have now abandoned in favour of Mail – using the tab key to select an address from a list of addresses. So I now have to break that habit and use the enter key.

Thank you!
