There must not be more than one "To" header field.  See RFC 2822,
section 3.6, the part that says "The following table indicates limits on
the number of times each field may occur in a message header".

The following would be acceptable:

    To: "Owner of intelenet.net Ticket #22917":; ,
	"OtherRecipients of intelenet.net Ticket #22917":; ,
	"AdminCc of intelenet.net Ticket #22917":;

That's an "address-list" that contains a comma-separated list of "group"
constructs.  See RFC 2822 section 3.4 for the syntax of "address-list",
"address" and "group".  It's split onto multiple lines, using what RFC
2822 calls "folding".
