[BUG] MailMessage cannot send to more than one email address

In the MailComposition (MailMessage) window which comes up when doing
'mail to list' from the changesorter, or 'mail out bug report' from the
debugger, or 'email package maintainers' from SqueakMap, etc., it
doesn't seem possible to send the email to more than one address.
(Yes, this means that 'email package maintainers' in SM doesn't work
after all if there is more than one maintainer :-( ... )
I'm not sure now if the problem is in MailMessage or in
SMTPClient>>recipient:. (I guess the DecentReviewerNotePad in BFAV
sends to multiple To: address somewhat successfully, but it uses
multiple To: fields which has the side-effect of confusing some email
clients, and is not RFC822 approved.)
I tested this three different ways, by editing the contents of the To:
portion of the MailComposition window, with the results below....

Test 1: ------------------------
"From: dway at mailcan.com
To: dway at mailcan.com, dew_dropper at hotmail.com
Subject: Regarding Whisker Browser
testing"
-> 553 5.1.3 <dway at mailcan.com, dew_dropper at hotmail.com>... Invalid
route address
Test 2: ------------------------
From: dway at mailcan.com
To: <dway at mailcan.com>, <dew_dropper at hotmail.com>
Subject: Regarding Whisker Browser
testing"
-> no error, but email only gets sent to the last address. (SMTPClient
adds brackets around the whole To list, like this:
"<<dway at mailcan.com>, <dew_dropper at hotmail.com>>"
Test 3: ------------------------
"From: dway at mailcan.com
To: dway at mailcan.com
To: dew_dropper at hotmail.com
Subject: Regarding Whisker Browser
testing"
-> 553 5.1.3 <dway at mailcan.com, dew_dropper at hotmail.com>... Invalid
route address
