Description:
------------
In function mail($to, $subject, $body, $header): 

If string $to is bigger than 2048, it is cutted there..

When setting
$to = "Harker Tetter<harker@tetter.com>, Sarter Berker<sarter@berker.com>, ..."
then it will be eventually cutted in between two < > so the mail won't be delivered.

RFC says, that the maximum length of a line in a mail is 512 bytes so php should meet this RFC norm by cutting the to-string appropriatly.

RTFM: "Note:  The to parameter should not be an address in the form of "Something <someone@example.com>". The mail command may not parse this properly while talking with the MTA (Particularly under Windows)."
