Why not use a DIST job instead?  Here's a template that I use...
 
//TESTJOB JOB Echo=no
DISTRIBUTE MAIL FROM=DD=ME PRIOR=49 ACK=MAIL TO DD=DIST
//ME DD "[log in to unmask] E-mail God"
//DIST DD *
[log in to unmask] BSMTP
[log in to unmask] BSMTP
[log in to unmask] BSMTP
/*
//DATA DD *,EOF,Res=Disk

Hello..
 
This is a test message..

We use something similar once a month for a 3,000 recipient mailing - we
have a little program that extracts the recipeints from a database, builds
the job, and sends it to our Listserv.  Works like a charm....
