Unless you're willing to give a separate message to sendmail for
each recipient (which is inefficient and dangerous - with big
lists you might run out of disk space on the partition with the
mailqueue) there's no straightforward way to do it with
sendmail.  Before switching to Qmail I had a careful look
at the sendmail source code to see whether I could hack it to do
this kind of thing, and decided aginst trying to do it with
sendmail.

Greetings, Norbert.
