I am not convinced, that this feature is of general use, sorry.
The purpose of putting the original sender and recipients in the forward is 
that the reciever also knows them and eventually even can answer them 
directely. Without knowing the e-mail address, this is not possible. Also 
when communicating in the internet the e-mail address simply belongs to the 
name.

If you forward a mail to someone where you fear, that he sends spam, then you 
should better not send him a mail at all.

Besides that, KMMessage::toStrip() is also used elsewhere and definitely 
supposed to return only the first e-mail address. For example in the headers 
of the sent-mail folder you anyway wont be able to read more than one 
recipient.
