Description
Currently the EmailMessage.message
method sets the email's To:
header to match the to
argument to the message object's constructor.
It can be useful to set a To:
header that is different from the actual recipients of the message. For example, when implementing a mailing list, the To:
header can be set to the mailing list's address itself.
Currently, however, if you pass a custom To
header in the constructor's headers
argument, the resulting message contains two To
headers.
I've provided a patch with tests that will instead look for a custom To
header in extra_headers
when constructing the mail message, defaulting to the present behavior if no custom To
header was provided. This is analogous to the approach taken for the From
header, which was implemented in #9214.
