I'm running 2.6.5 on a debian base...
It didn't seem to matter what is input -
I tried using a single recipient as well as multiples (separated by comma).

Output appears as -
# python send_my_msg.py
From: me at me.com
To: you at you.com
Enter Message, end with ^D:
Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "send_my_msg.py", line 12, in <module>
             % (fromaddr, ", ".join(toaddr)))
TypeError
