First off, this is not the most efficient way to send mail as it closes &
reopens connections to the server for each mail.  Look into using PEAR.

Secondly, I would not loop through everything for each email address.  One
way to do it would be to say:

If($email_to != ""){
    $to = explode(",", $email_to);
    $to_email = "";
    $i = 0;
    While($i<=count($to)){
        $to_email .= $to[$i];
    }
    // Now, just create 1 email, and send it to all the names
      $subject = $email_subject;
      $body .= $HTTP_POST_VARS['message'];
      $body .= "\n---------------------------\n";
        $body .= "Article Name :";
        $body .= "\n---------------------------\n";
        $body .= $Article_Name;
        $body .= "\n---------------------------\n\n";           
        $body .= "\nStory :\n\n";
        $body .= $TheStory;                             
        $body .= "\n\n\n---------------------------\n";
        $body .= "Sent By: ".$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address']."\n";
        $header = "From: ".$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address']."
<".$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address'].">\n";
        $header .= "Reply-To: ".$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address']."
<".$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address'].">\n";
        $header .= "X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion() . "\n";
        $header .= "X-Priority: 1";
      $header .= "To: Some [EMAIL PROTECTED]"; // Masks To: field
        mail($to_email, $subject, $body, $header);
}

That would make more sense, yet still the server load would be huge because
of all the opening and closing of connections.  Look into PEAR::Mail or
using SMTP.

$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address'] . "\n";
                        $header = "From: " .
$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address'] . " <" .
$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address'] . ">\n";
                        $header .= "Reply-To: " .
$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address'] . " <" .
$HTTP_POST_VARS['email_address'] . ">\n";
                        $header .= "X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion() . "\n";
                        $header .= "X-Priority: 1";
                        mail($to_email, $subject, $body, $header);
