Oops sorry i was doing so well at changing the addresses to be the list, i
forgot with that mail.

Looking at Desktop.SendMail code it looks like it will NOT use portal if
Desktop.UsePortal is false.

  If DesktopPortal.Enabled Then
    DesktopPortal.SendMail({To}, {Cc}, {Bcc}, Subject, Body, aAttach)
    Return
  Endif

' original xdg semdmail code follows.

So it should work as before.

(PS. there are a number of functions that are now using the desktop portal
by default that can use the old way by setting UsePortal to false)
