      Cause: dnf-automatic configured to use `command_email` emitter to send e-mails to multiple recipients and default /usr/bin/mail program installed with s-nail package.
      Consequence: /usr/bin/mail fails to send the e-mail.
      Fix: dnf-automatic program was changed to expand `email_to` keyword in `command_format` formatting string from a single argument to multiple arguments.
      Result: dnf-automatic can sends e-mails to multiple recipients with a default /usr/bin/mail program.

      dnf-automatic fails to send e-mail notifications for multiple recipients if `command_email` emitter is used. The cause is that /usr/bin/mail of s-nail expects each recipient as a separate argument.

      This is a request to restore compatibility (relative to RHEL 8) with the default /usr/bin/mail provider in RHEL 9.

      Affected packages:

      dnf-automatic-4.14.0-29.el9.noarch
      s-nail-14.9.22-6.el9.x86_64
