What did you try? You should just be able to pass the list:
s.sendmail( msg['From'], emails, msg.as_string() )
Or, if you must,
msg['To'] = emails
s.sendmail( msg['From'], msg['To'], msg.as_string() )
It needs to be a list or tuple of individual addresses, e-mail only, with
no "nicknames". If you tried that, what did you see?

No, you misread the example. It uses that in the headers of the message.
That won't work for the second parameter of SMTP.sendmail.
