An easier solution would be to to use <list>-outgoing directely
and let sendmail reduce duplicates:

To: Receipients of mailing lists <nobody>
Bcc: list1-outgoing, list2-outgoing, list3-outgoing

Most mail programs will hide the information on the BCC field,
which means that the actual names will not be revealed. Since
you send directely to the lists sendmail will create one list,
do all aliases och .forward lookups, and then reduce the list
so that there will be only one copy to each recepient.
