Is there some reason you need to use Mutt?
Compose your message in a file, with full headers and all. You need not
insert the recipients into the To: header, though you should have one in
the headers. You can have a fake To: header, such as "To: my-list",
even if there is no such list as "my-list".
Once you have composed the file, send it directly via sendmail:
sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] \
[EMAIL PROTECTED] < mail.file
As you can see, sendmail will take the contents of mail.file and
distribute it to all of the senders you name on the command line.
You can even put the list of names into a file, and insert them thusly:
sendmail `cat users.list` < mail.file
Voila! A mutt-less solution (on the mutt mailing list, no less)! :)
