The second argument to sendmail is a list, not a comma separated string.
Currently, you've specified a single address containing a comma. Your
MTA has charitably decided to deliver it to the first address, although
I expect other MTAs would just reject it. If you've got comma separated
addresses in a string, make a list using s.split(",").
