Or even:

$ for i in `cat recipients`
do
  mail -s "Weekly study"  $i < study_this_week_file
  sleep 2
done

I took that approach years ago for sending a message to a number of
recipients. It worked pretty well, just need your 'recipients' file to
be a file with the addresses, one per line. 

And you can make a crontab for this too.
