Check the docstring for bbdb-mail, which is the function that starts mail composition from the BBDB buffer. Looks like if you give it a C-u prefix, it will use all of the mail addresses. If you're combining this with the * prefix to act on all the visible records, you've got to hit the * before the C-u prefix key.
