I don't know about getting them to work, but I'd like to know what the
point of this syntax is. How does it differ, functionally, from:

 	To: user1@dom.one, user2@some.dom, user3@dom.xxx

Near as I can figure, these two forms should be interpreted the same way
by the MUA, the MTA, and gateways alike.
