Powershell - send to multiple recipients

I have been playing with PowerShell's Send-MailMessage and seems to work fine with one person to send to..  I have previously used Blat.exe with VBScript and it works fine.  I even tried to convert the Blat Script over to PowerShell..

I have also seen this, but does not seem to work either..

I have read that you need to setup multiple recipients in the following manner:
$To = ("recipient1@company.com","recipient2@company.com")

If I convert the blat Script..

function blat-Mail
{
	param(
		[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
		[String[]]
		$To,
		[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
		$Subject, 
		[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
		$Body, 
		[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
		$Attachment, 
		$From = "CustomerCare@somecompany.com",
		$SmtpServer="RELAY.COMPANY.COM"
		)
			
	try {
		$strCommand = """D:\WORK\Scripts\Blat.exe"
		$strCommand = $strCommand + " -log $MailResult"
		$strCommand = $strCommand + " -f ""$from"""
		$strCommand = $strCommand + " -to ""$To"""
		$strCommand = $strCommand + " -server ""$smtpserver"""
		$strCommand = $strCommand + " -subject ""$subject"""
		$strCommand = $strCommand + " -body ""$body"""
		$strCommand = $strCommand + " -attach ""$Attachment"""
		$strCommand = $strCommand + " -q"""

 & $strCommand
##write-host $strCommand
		Write-Host "Email successfully sent." -ForegroundColor Green
	}
	catch {
		Write-Host "Email did not go through: $_" -ForegroundColor Red
	}
	}

$FullDate = Get-Date -format "yyyyMMdd000000"
$applog = "D:\WORK\Scripts\p1\AppLog\"
$mailresult = "$applog"+$FullDate+"_MailResult.txt"

blat-Mail "recipient1@company.com" "Daily Reports" "Attached are reports.  If there are any issues or concerns please contact your Customer Service Representative immediately." "D:\WORK\Scripts\p1\ReportDownload\Temp\20130713_foo.zip"

Results are (have tried to pass individual parameters and the whole thing as one parameter):

Multiple recipients using Send-MailMessage:

I am reading in a "mapping" (settings) file as well.

Mapping Construct is:

COMPANY1,recipient1@somecompany.com;recipient2@somecompany.com
COMPANY2,recipient1@anothercompany.com;recipient2@anothercompany.com;recipient3@anothercompany.com;recipient4@anothercompany.com
COMPANY3,recipien1@yetanothercompany.com

And here is the code..

#7 Email the resulting Zip files to companies
