In addition to what Lee Marsh said I wanted to add that you should NOT try
to send the email "with the email addresses separated by commas". First,
it's very impersonal and second it wreaks of spam and some, if not most,
spam filters will reject it on this basis.
Instead, do as Lee said and loop through the list of emails sending ONE
email per entry to ONLY that record's email address.
