I assume that Net::SMTP is breaking this up into multiple separate MAIL TO
commands at the protocol level?

Addresses should be separated by commas; your second example doesn't have
a comma.

Comma-delimited To: headers are fine. You can't send a comma-delimited
address in the MAIL TO command, but Net::SMTP may do the right thing
there.
