For what purpose?

If you wish to create a list of addresses, from a file, you can capture
the file using either of these techniques:

        ADDRS=`cat file-of-addresses | tr '\012' ' '`

        :0
        ADDRS=|cat file-of-addresses | tr '\012' ' '

The "tr" pipe is to turn any newlines into blanks.  Then, you can use
"ADDRS" as you like, even as the target of a redirect:

        :0
        ! $ADDRS


There is also a program called "choplist", which reads a file of addresses,
and generates sendmail invocations on groups of the addresses. 

Choplist is part of SmartList, a mailing list manager written on top of
and by the same author as procmail.
