You can still use app passwords with gmail, you just have to set 2FA on 
your account. There are guides on the net how to do that.

Alternatively, you can also use the web submission endpoint with b4 -- 
documentation is available here:

You can use app-passwords and store them in a keyring.

Maybe this site will be of help to you: https://git-send-email.io/

Hi Tobin,

You are right, this is just a matter of how mutt displays messages that you
sent. The "To" is hard-coded before the destination as a visual cue. When
in doubt, you can always use "h" in message view to see the full headers.

Regards,
Vlad

I usually add only the maintainer and the mailing list as To: and the
rest in Cc.
