I bet curl or wget would work, maybe.   Script generated header + mailx
and curl/wget + wa.cgi methods seem about the same amount of work.

Does anyone think that an automated script run against the WA CGI would
work to do the list creation from one or more templates?

The jobs to create the lists are submitted by email, one list per job,
one job
per email message. It is ugly and time-consuming, but it works.
