New issue 354: Recognize 'Cc' and 'Bcc' in send_email()
https://bitbucket.org/conservancy/kallithea/issues/354/recognize-cc-and-bcc-in-send_email

Ross Thomas:

Is it possible to keep an empty _recipients_ list in send\_email\(\) if ‘Bcc’ 
and/or ‘Cc’ headers are present?

I have a pushhook that tries to send anonymized bulk email \(i.e. empty 
_recipients_ with a ‘Bcc' header1\) to all the followers of a repo \(except the 
pusher, if present\) in order to reduce the number of emails I need to send and 
to stop address leakage.

Currently, if the _recipients_ list is empty or _None_ the email is sent to all 
the admins as well as the ‘Bcc’ recipients, which is not really what I want.  
So I am reduced to looping through the recipients and sending an email per 
recipient.

I know I could have a spam-able dummy address as a placeholder in the 
_recipients_ but that seems a little … cheesy.

Kallithea version: 0.5.1 \(also in 0.5.0\)

==  
1 I’m not sure if this is a standard lib restriction but one should also be 
able to specify multiple headers of the same name.  I know that smtplib 
supports it but there seems to be several layers between here and there.
