Did you put the entire program there?  That's not what you're supposed
to do; what you're supposed to do is put a link to the program there. 
See the other entries in /usr/adm/sm.bin to see what I mean.

Bulk mailer was designed before spam became a problem; it's a legitimate
email tool.  For some reason you're of the impression that at least some
of us don't believe that, but I don't remember seeing any specific
complaints against you.

You could except for two things...

(1) I generally charge for private help and give away help on the lists,
within my ability and time constraints, at no charge.

(2) I'm NOT an expert in bulk_mailer.

I'd highly recommend you join either the majordomo list at Great Circle,
or a general mailhelp list.
