General mail questions

1) I can use SwiftMailer to connect to a GMail SMTP account and use that to send the emails, correct?
2) Additionally, in looking for ways to minimize processing, bandwidth, etc...when I send a single email to multiple addresses, how many exactly can you CC?
Carbon copying as I understand it basically sends the email to multiple addresses in one go, but each recipient receives the list of emails of others who received the email?
How many emails can one a single send via CC handle? 50 or 100 or maybe more?
I'm curious to know how CC works. I'm under the impression that you send ONE email (attachments and all) to the SMTP server which then parses the headers, extracts the CC addresses and repeats the sending process on the mail server side. Most bulk emails send each email to the SMTP separately, which is the only way to avoid the multiple recipients in the mail headers?
Cheers
