It doesn't break any RFC; there aren't supposed to be limits on any part of
an SMTP transactions. The minimum allowed lower limit is I think 100
RCPT's per envelope, I think. qmail probably doesn't have a limit.

Actually there is a preprocessor that will do this (TLB from
ftp.hpc.uh.edu:/pub/tlb) but I think it's way overkill for what you want to
do. It will send the whole thing in one transaction if that's what you
want.
As for Sendmail configuration, I don't see any mention of this in the op
manual and a quick search of the source doesn't turn up anything
meaningful. How about asking the gurus in comp.mail.sendmail?
