#73: news2mail's crosspost handling code generates bad To headers

 Priority:  low        |   Milestone:       
Component:  utilities  |     Version:

-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 news2mail uses the following to generate the To header:

 {{{
 print SM "To: @a\n\n";
 }}}

 If there are multiple addresses, this generates a broken header since it
 uses a bare space as a delimiter.  sendmail will then turn this into a dot
 and corrupt the header.  It needs to use a comma instead.
