24416	EmailMessage and send_email do not handle ugettext_lazy translated addresses correctly	Mike Edmunds	Mike Edmunds	"Most (all?) of the core email backends seem to have issues with lazy strings used as addresses: to, cc, etc.:

{{{
>>> from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _
>>> from django.core.mail import send_mail
>>> send_mail('Subject', 'Content', _('from@example.com'), [_('to@example.com')])
... TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance, __proxy__ found
}}}

(#7574 fixed this for subject and content, but not the address fields.)

Patch coming shortly."	Bug	closed	Core (Mail)	1.7	Normal	fixed			Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
