Have you tried separating addresses with a semi-colon (;) or a comma (,)?
Some mail servers will treat these as separate email addresses, depending on the mail server.

Hi matt. Yes I have tried that, but the get the error: Invalid client email address. There must be a way to code in an additional field that concatenates with the other email address upon sending?

separation with commas should work
Make sure that you don't have spaces after the commas

Tried with both the semi-colon and the comma without using any spaces but still receiving the same error... It must be the mail validation when you try to save the contact? It does not recognize multiple email addresses (in any format) as a valid email address.

My preferred mailserver allows for a distribution list, where ,ail sent to one address is actually sent to many. Does your mailserver do such a thing?

Unfortunately that would mean that every email sent to that email address will also be sent to the other email addresses. Including mail not being handled by SI, if I understand correctly.

Wouldn't it just be better to create another field called for example "Secondary Email" and then edit the mailing function to add the secondary email if it exists?

Not sure if you are an active developer for SI, but if the core contributors could have a look at this and provide some assistance as to what the best course of action would be it would be greatly appreciated.

I think the ability to add multiple email addresses to a contact is a (much) needed feature, and should not be too hard to implement for someone who is more familiar with the system.

Comma seperation works, we do it all the time.
Even spaces between shouldn't be a problem. What version of SI do you use? (I think I use 2010.2)

Ok. Please don't shoot me, but it turns out I'm not using SI... I really appreciate the help though! Sorry for wasting your time. Feel like an idiot. *face palm*
