I'm not sure of the version I have vs. the version you have, but mine came with
the following...
#Use of bulk_mailer with sendmail:
#To have bulk_mailer distribute mail to a list, add the following lines
#
#{FOO}-request: whoever-maintains-foo
#owner-{FOO}: whoever-maintains-foo
#{FOO}: "|{BULK_MAILER} owner-{FOO}@{YOUR.DOMAIN} {ADDRESS_LIST}"
#
#where {FOO} is the name of the list, {YOUR.DOMAIN} is your
#fully-qualified domain, {BULK_MAILER} is a full path name of the
#bulk_mailer program, and {ADDRESS_LIST} is a full path name of the
#file containing the list of addresses.
#
#sample-outgoing: "|/path/bulk_mailer owner-sample@your.com /path/lists/sample"
