It's my understanding that all people in a "to" field who recieve a message
should be able to see all the other people addressed in a "to" field.  This
however is not so.

If you use multiple "to" field lines in the mail gui ( one email address per
"to" field line ), the email recipient will only see their own email address in
the "to" field of the email message.

If you use a single line "to" field with a comma separated list of email
addresses, then all email addresses in a "to" field are shown to the email
recipient.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Address an email ( using the "to" field ) to more than one email address using
one line per email address in the mail gui.
2.Send the email.
3.Ask one of the email recipients how many and which email addresses are in the
"to" field.

Actual Results:  
Only the email address of the recipient is in the "to" field.

Expected Results:  
All email addressess in the "to" field should be shown to a recipient of an email.

Reporter, is this still a problem for you with a current build?

Sven: This is no longer a problem for me and hasn't been for several releases. 
Sorry, I can't be more specific which release it was fixed.
