It's the multipart aspects of the email that I'm after. This allows me to
put a text-only version of the mail first, then the HTML version, all in the
same message. Those with HTML email readers (like Outlook or Netscape) will
just see the formatted HTML, while those with text readers will see the text
version first, followed by the raw HTML code, which they can then ignore.

Would you need a specific program to do this at all? Couldn't you just
have your local friendly IS person set up an email alias with all, or
perhaps a subset, of the email addresses that goes to
"list(at)domain.com". This is the way we've approached it in the past,
albeit with a fairly small distribution list (<250 recipients).
