or

Code:
cat textfile | mailx -s "Subject" recipient1@whatever.com recipient2@whatever.com

or my favorite

Code:
LIST="recipient1@whatever.com recipient2@whatever.com recipient3@whatever.com recipient4@whatever.com"

mailx -s "Subject" $LIST < textfile

or

Code:
echo "This is my message" | mailx -s "Subject" recipient1@whatever.com recipient2@whatever.com

you can even go as far as setting up an alias in /etc/aliases

list=foo@y0mama.com, jimbo@y0daddy.com
EOF

then just echo test|mailx list
