We capture multiple email addresses for our Organisations eg "Main", "Branch", and "Tender".
Is it possible when using Civimail to select which email address to use?

If not is there a way to (relatively) easily check all of a specific type of email as preferred or "bulk" without having to do it manually one by one?

Or am I missing an obvious easier way to achieve the same objective?

1. No

2. You can use SQL to do the needful. Its fairly simple. You can do so via PHPMyAdmin or some other command line interface

I would find it useful too, if I could select the location type for a specific mailing.

Actually, in step "3. Mailing content" of the wizard "New mailing" you have to select:
- From email
- Subject

It would be great if there was an extra field "To email".
Then you would have 3 options:
1) Primary email address of contact
OR
2) Bulk mailing address of contact
OR
3) a specific location type (to choose from a combobox with all location types)

Do you think this would be a useful addition to CiviMail?

Seems like this will be a good addition.

can you submit a patch for this and/or sponsor a developer to do the needful. I suspect its a 20-30 hour or so project with tests and documentation included

I will see with Civicoop (Erik Hommel or Jaap Jansma) what we can do.
Thanks!
