this is actually the problem I mentioned to you privately.
casually mentioning it to someone here did, as ever, get the indication
of where to look. From mush's config file:
/* If your mailer does not understand commas between addresses, you should
* define NO_COMMAS. This includes pre-3.0 smail and default MTAs used on
* xenix, and sys-v systems.
* This does NOT apply to MMDF or sendmail, in most cases. SunOS 4.1 as
* shipped needs this, but note that if you are allowing mush to default
* to SUN_4_1 (see the end of this file) you won't get this.
*/
#ifdef SUN_4_1 /* SunOS 4.1 has warped sendmail.cf */
#define NO_COMMAS /**/
#endif /* SUN_4_1 */
