Anybody here familiar with automated email systems? The board and I would like the ability to thank every person who donated last year via PayPal and Moneybookers. Such a system would also need to be used in the future to do the same thing.
What exactly is the issue? I assume you have all the addresses in a flat text file or in the database? If you don't need parallelisation all that's required then is a line of shellcode (while read -r address; do mail -s "Thanks for the dosh!" "$address" < ~/GiveUsMoreMoneyPlease; done < ~/ListOfAddresses). Pull the standard template through sed if you want to personalise things.
