Isn't there a simple way for procmail to handle this list? It seems the
sender could put something in the subject line indicating it was intended
for the list, then send it to the shell account. Procmail would see the
item in the subject line (or perhaps recognize the sender) and reply to
all of the names in a file. Is this too far-fetched?

No. However, you should perhaps look at Smartlist instead, which is a
mailing list manager somwhat like Majordomo, only Procmail-based.
