I always pass the --to and --cc to git send-email, not to format-patch, and
that works:

    git send-email \
    --to "Måns Rullgård <mans@...sr.com>" \
    --to "David S. Miller <davem@...emloft.net>" \
    --cc "netdev@...r.kernel.org" \
    --cc "linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org" \
    *00*

becomes:
