I'm having trouble with commas in the TO: field of mail messages from
Mush.

Whenever I send to multiple recipients, or to one recipient with a Cc: to
someone, Mush makes a list for sendmail that is separated by commas.  My
sendmail gags on this, giving me errors on all recipients except the last
one, which has no comma appended.  This happens whether I put commas
between multiple recipients or not.

I've tried defining and not defining NO_COMMAS in config.h, but either
way has no effect [this is predicted by the comments in config.h].

What can I do?  Have I done something wrong in constructing the software?

My configuration: SPARCstation-1 running SunOS 4.1 with Mush 7.1.1. The
sendmail version is 4.61.
