I'll describe what I did on my installation.

1 - New email
2 - Add people in the "To" field
3 - Click on "Save List..."
4 - Assign a name: "List to myself"
5 - Click "Save" and select the proper Addressbook (I selected Personal Contacts as I do not really trust the Google Contacts 
addressbook yet)
6 - Discard the created email
7 - Created a new email and used the "List to myself" address on the "To" field.
8 - Sent the email
9 - Everything worked fine, all my personal addressess got the email.

I'm running KDE SC 4.7 on Archlinux.
