Indeed, even if you only have ONE recipient, the to_addrs argument should be
a list with one element. I haven't checked to see whether a tuple would be
accepted, but there's no real reason why it shouldn't.
For the record, smtpli.SMTP.sendmail() does *not* look at the message
envelope at all: so, for example, you implement blind Cc's by including
recipients in the to_addrs list when they don't appear in the message
headers inside To: or Cc:.
