Hmm that is strange, because in the code the 'to' is split using the comma:

protected String[] splitAndTrim(String str) {
    if (str != null) {
      String[] splittedStrings = str.split(",");
      for (int i = 0; i < splittedStrings.length; i++) {
        splittedStrings = splittedStrings.trim();
      }
      return splittedStrings;
    }
    return null;
}

I'll investigate and see if there is a bug and report back to you

I checked our unit tests and we have a test for multiple recipients:

<activiti:string>kermit@activiti.org, fozzie@activiti.org,mispiggy@activiti.org</activiti:string>

The unit test in question is found at org.activiti.engine.test.bpmn.mail.EmailServiceTaskTest
