BCC list entry not expanded with empty "To:" address #167

Description

@RealRaven2000

If we use an address book list name in the BCC field, this is not turned into the actual recipients on send, if we also leave the "to" field empty. AS a workaround, it is possible to generate a SmartTemplate that sets the BCC automatically like this:

%header.set(bcc,"Friends <friends>")%

Use the name of the list on the left and within the < angle brackets >, just like Tb would do it when it auto-fills the address field when you type the list name.

You can send off this email without filling the "to" field which achieves a list mail with undisclosed recipients. However as long as SmartTemplates (2.17) is active you cannot do this manually as Thunderbird will not expand the list as long as To is not filled and take this literally - which will lead to the mail server rejecting the email.
