I always pass the --to and --cc to git send-email, not to format-patch, and
that works:

    git send-email \
    --to "Måns Rullgård <[email protected]>" \
    --to "David S. Miller <[email protected]>" \
    --cc "[email protected]" \
    --cc "[email protected]" \
    *00*

becomes:

    From: Geert Uytterhoeven <[email protected]>
    To: =?UTF-8?q?M=C3=A5ns=20Rullg=C3=A5rd?= <[email protected]>,
            "David S. Miller" <[email protected]>
    Cc: [email protected],

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
