Actually the problem is in a detail of the example script that I did not
notice. You create the TO variable in one place in the script, but later on
it is used and the example script assumes a single TO and uses angle
brackets around it. Drop the angle brackets and you're in business.



--> Now, compose the source and send the email...
set rawSource to "Date: " & (do shell script "date '+%a, %e %b %Y %H:%M:%S
%z'") & return & ¬
    "To: "<" & |TO| & ">" & return & ¬
    "From: <" & |From| & ">" & return & ¬
    "Subject: " & theSubject & return & ¬
