Sending mail to a group of users in one step

I need to have the possibility of sending mail (the same message)to a group of persons in ONE step.
(N.B.: This group of persons is changing frequently so I prefer to restore them in a separate file, in order to easily edit it)

Thanks ghjm but..
I still need to put my list in a file, and to control who can send to that list..
Okay, then you need to set up Majordomo. You can download it from the Web site above, and it includes pretty good installation instructions.
Thanks a lot ghjm.. I will try that Majordomo.
Hi joujou,
to put your list in a separate file, just edit the /etc/aliases file like this

your_alias: :include:/the/path/of the file containing the list

enjoy.
fdrs1: Just out of curiosity, if you do it like that, do you know if you have to run newaliases when you change the file containing the list?
