It works beautifully for smaller lists. I've never used 400, but I can't imagine why it wouldn't work. If you have a comma delimited list of addresses, you could just paste them into /etc/aliases in this form: alias_name: name@xxxxxxxxxxxx, name@xxxxxxxxxxxx, ... You must run "newaliases" after you edit the file, then just send one email to aliases@yourmailhost and all the defined addresses get it. man aliases -- Brad Kittredge <fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
