Actually, I think it depends on what is meant by "bad". If you mean that the email address is inactive, for instance, then Adam is correct. But if you mean that the email address is malformed (no @, for instance), then I believe you'll get an error message. And I seem to remember that nothing is sent (though I could be wrong about that) until you locate and fix or delete the bad address. The best way to find out would be to try an experiment (which I don't have time for or I'd do it myself). Make yourself the recipient of an email (repeated several times) and malform one of the addresses. See what happens.
