It appears today is my day to reply to messages from you, Jurgen. ;)
I do exactly what Peter recommends for the mass mailings I send out
intermittently to a large group of my friends. Each receives an
individual copy of the same message. The template I use for the mass
mailings follows. As you'll see it is very rudimentary and I'm sure
not very sophisticated, but it works and it may help you get started
with something more elegant.

You'll note that it requires two text files: one called "subj.txt"
that is merely a one-line subject and the other called "current.txt"
that contains the body of the message that is sent. The path to those
files would have to be tailored to your own situation, of course.
