Sorry, no hard feelings. OK well, I didn't mean it is not possible,
instead of writing the whole mail sending function, i thought may be it
will be easier to do this way in minutes, if you know how to fiddle
with your config file, well you have your ride.
If you want it here are the functions that I use to spam the people.

my($fromUser, $destinations, $message) = @_;
my($error);
# This is not really appropriate for an argument, I think.
my($server) = ("localhost");
my($fromDomain) = ("whatever.net");
