We have something here that may solve this problem:  and EXEC that takes
a file and mails it individually to a bunch of recipients (the mail
header for each recipient containing only that recipient's name).  A de-
scription follows:
 
JUNKMAIL fileid [(ACK|NOACK]   sends individually-addressed mail to each
of the recipients listed in the specified file.  The file also contains the
name and address of the sender and the subject title, if any.  If
neither acknowledgement option is specified, the mail will be marked as
requiring acknowledgement.
 
The format of the file is as follows:
.fo off
-----------------------------------------------------------
First line of mail text.
Second line of mail text.
.li
. . .
Last line of mail text.
.li
.
Subject Title of Mail (if any)
Name Of Sender SUSERID@SNODE
Name Of First Recipient RUSERID1@RNODE1
Name of Second Recipient RUSERID2@RNODE2
.li
. . .
Name of Last Recipient RUSERIDN@RNODEN
-----------------------------------------------------------
.fo on
The lines of dashes are not part of the file.  The period marking the
end of the message text is essential.
 
If the subject title is to be omitted, a blank line must take its place.
The sender's and recipients' names may be in any form or omitted -- the
last blank-delimited item on each line is taken as the Bitnet address.
 
The mail text is not reformatted but will appear exactly as it is in the
file.  A copy of the mail is also sent to the sender.
