send single email to entire cc: list

Details
Bugzilla currently sends separate emails to everyone on the CC: list. This detrimentally impacts performance of bug changes for bugs with a large CC: list. It probably also makes sendmail do more work than necessary. Bugzilla should send a single email to everyone on the CC: list.

There will be many changes landing making this impractical, including multiple email formats and bug #86201. And for everyone on the CC list, they could also be other things, and hence their X-Bugzilla-Reason header might be different.

This reason (different headers for people on the Cc lists, multiple formats, etc.) is exactly why I disagree with Gerv on the use of Mail::Bulkmail. (It is interesting to note that use of a scheme like Mail::Bulkmail may actually move us back more the way things *used* to be done... which I guess was changed for a reason; see Jake's comment at the end of bug 71630). Also, looking at bug 86201 argues against use of Mail::Bulkmail (or schemes like it). Adding Gerv to the Cc so he can't claim he didn't hear about this...

My argument for using Mail::Bulkmail is not that it's easier to send the same message to multiple people. Perhaps the name of the Perl module is inappropriate for the use we would make of it. I'm a hairs-breadth from finishing my patch; when I post it, I'll also say what advantages it has, and why it's the right way to go. Gerv

Myk, do you have anything further to add to this?

Resolving won't fix since it doesn't seem like this will work given the X-Bugzilla-Reason header.
