Sorry to have caused all that confusion. The quote from RFC822 I gave
is really confusing and is indeed not relevant to the original
question. As Tim pointed out, the "to_addrs" parameter in
smtplib.py::sendmail is translated to the SMTP RCPT TO and thus must
contain all the intended recipients whe

OK, I'm a bit concerned that the answer to the original question has been
lost. The difference between the SMTP en

RFC 2822 obsoletes RFC 822, and I don't know of any specification in RFC
2822 that requires an email address to be present in the To: header. My
mail seems to generally work fine without a To: header.
I haven't memorized RFC 2
