Answer 1

I just tried the following code, and it's working. The only things strange in your code seems to be in the setFrom with an Array.

        Yii::$app->mailer->compose()
            ->setFrom('addrs1@gmail.com')
            ->setTo(array('addrs1@gmail.com', 'addrs2@hotmail.com'))
            ->setCc(array('addrs3@gmail.com'))
            ->setSubject('Sending Email')
            ->setTextBody('This is Plain text content')
            ->setHtmlBody('Please go to  <a href="http://google.com/">GOOGLE</a>')
            ->send();    

In the Swift mailer code there is the following comments :

 * Set the From address of this message.
 *
 * It is permissible for multiple From addresses to be set using an array.
 *
 * If multiple From addresses are used, you SHOULD set the Sender address and
 * according to RFC 2822, MUST set the sender address.

Hope it helps.

Worked for me:

            ->setTo([
                    'john.doe@gmail.com' => 'John Doe',
                    'jane.doe@gmail.com' => 'Jane Doe',
            ])

Answer 3

Try solution:

$mail = Yii::$app->mailer->compose($mail_type, $params)
        ->setFrom([ self::$_sender => self::$_senderName ])
        ->setSubject($subject);
    foreach(self::$_to as $receiver){
        $mail->setTo($receiver)
            ->send();
    }

You only need to enclose in brackets:

['pedro@something.com', 'maria@something.com']

It is well documented in the Class reference yii\swiftmailer\Message.
