Since you're running sendmail, one way to quickly do it is to create a
sendmail alias (in sendmail's /usr/lib/aliases file).  If the
distribution list doesn't change very often, you can add the members
directly to the /usr/lib/aliases file.  If it changes often, you might
be able to convince your Postmaster to use a line of:

distribution-list:    :include:/usr/local/lib/mail/distribution-list

Then edit the file "/usr/local/lib/mail/distribution-list" so it
contains lines that look like:

	him@system.SYS.COM (Hiram I. Muir),
	her@organization.ORG (Herlinda Evelyn Ramirez),
	mh-users@ICS.UCI.EDU (MH Users and Abusers)

In other words, the contents of the file looks just like the right-
hand-side of the aliases in /usr/lib/aliases.  Make the file writable
by you and readable by sendmail, and you can change it as often as
necessary.
