It's normal to put a comma to separate the person\people you are addressing, so I'd do it.

1 & 4 are correct, and 3 is one that people might argue over, the coubt being whether you can have plural kinds of a single sentence. ;-)

I agree with TDOL. I would use #1, but I would accept #4 and possibly #3.
