It's called perl and it's perfect for your needs (except it's not done 
already) [at 9 am run perl.file that composes mail based on headers eg (quick 
thought)]
-------------------------------------------------
sub: your-subject1
to: dest1
cc: copy1
body: a long diatribe
sub: another mail
to: meto
body: long
rambling
mail
about
stuff
sub: final mail
to: him
bcc: theboss
body: see its done!
----------------------------------------------
In this scheme the only caveat is never have a body starting with your 
keywords eg sub: to: cc: bcc: body: everything else goes.
ie this would be valid ...
----------------------------------------------
sub: The new mail system
to: him
body: Here is the new mailer. Be carefull to not start a line with
keywords sub: to: cc: body: they may be in the text
but not first in line. Use perl anchors eg /^to:/ /^body:/ etc
