Same as you, I am using Mail.app 8.2 under Yosemite 10.10.2.  The 
problem with using the + sign is that you have to do this one contact 
at at time.  You can't indicate more than one contact each time you 
press the + sign.  A real pain in the butt.  The best work around I 
found is to open up the Contacts app, select all of the entries I want, 
and then move them into the appropriate recipient field.  It works, but 
is not as productive as having the Contact functionality available 
right in the Mail app.  This appears to be an issue that was introduced 
with Yosemite.  I have found a lot of people complaining about this on 
various blogs.  Hopefully, Apple will restore the function.  I can 
think of no reason to have taken it out.

I appreciate the response.  If you have any other ideas I would be interested.

Thanks,

Jerry
