When there are multiple TO or CC recipients smtpmail creates multiple TO or CC headers.
TO: someone@somewhere.com TO: someoneelse@somewhereelse.com
This causes a higher score in spam checkers. What should happen is this...
TO: someone@somewhere.com,someoneelse@somewhereelse.com
This makes a lower spam score.
For version 5.8c... down around line 1053... here is a patch that I believe fixes the issue.
