Try to use the following shell script:


----------------- cut here ------------------
:
subject=$1
file_with_usernames=${2:-$HOME/.friends}
file_with_message=$3

for name in `cat ${file_with_usernames}`
do
       cat ${file_with_message} | mail -s ${subject:-""} $name
done
----------------- cut here ------------------
