(No defence, just an informational explanation:)

The wording does not originate from TYPO3 but from the Swift Mailer library.

Solution 2 (which is only for the adapter!) doesn't cause an exception 
being thrown when an empty address is used. It is in this case always 
possible that a valid to:, cc:, bcc: header was included in the headers 
parameter and that the mail can technically still be sent.

The fact that PHP mail() has a separate parameter for the recipient is 
probably the cause of this separate parameter in t3lib_utility_Mail.

The adapter works actually quite well. Yesterday I found that it could 
actually send HTML newsletters from Direct Mail if images were not embedded.
