 Yes.  It is real easy.  All you have to do is send out 75 different
replies, with a different 'To:' line on each.

 I know.  That wasn't what you had in mind.

 There really isn't much else you can do, though.

 You can automate this.  Assuming for the moment that you are using
/usr/ucb/Mail, you can have a functional argument: |/path/command
which is fed the mail as standard input.  Make this command a shell
script to create the 75 different messages.

 Then again, maybe what you are already doing is better.
