The email processor should allow messages without to element

Hi,

Title says it all...

There are cases were you don't want to display a list of recipients and
you provide only bcc's.

One case that comes to mind is a "recommend this site" page that accepts
multiple recipients: to preserve the confidentiality of the recipients,
many sites chose hide the list of recipients in that case.

In such a case, that would be nice to be able to either provide a "to"
with a "name" and without "email" or no "to" elements but the schema for
the email processor forbids these two options.

I don't know if/how you can just specify a name without an address with
javax.mail (the other option you were suggesting):

http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/javadocs/javax/mail/internet/package-summary.html

So I fixed using the other option. There must be at least one of "to",
"cc", or "bcc", which you can interleave, as follows (email.rng):

<oneOrMore>
     <choice>
         <element name="to">
             <ref name="address"/>
         </element>
         <element name="cc">
             <ref name="address"/>
         </element>
         <element name="bcc">
             <ref name="address"/>
         </element>
     </choice>
</oneOrMore>

Hopefully this is good enough!

Hmmm... I had not checked in JavaMail and was just assuming that it
could do all what the sendmail command can do, sorry if that was a wrong
assumption!
Yes, definitely!

Thanks.
