SolutionYes you will be able to send mail to 10000 users.
Question is: are they on the same system
Answer: use aliases
Question is: are they on different systems and need they subscription.
Answer: yes --> use a mailing system like majordomo

Re: How can I send e-mail to 10000 users ??
Just add an alias line to your alias file like this:
Ex:
listname : /usr/local/admin/groupmail/listname
where listname is the name of the "mailing list" you want to use.
After adding this to the alias file, run the "newaliases" command.
Then create the file you are pointing the alias to and put the email addresses in that file, one per line, like this:
user1@doman.com
user2@domain.com
etc.
Make sure you do a chmod 644 on the file as well.
You can then test the "function" of the list by doing a:
sendmail -bv listname
and if it works, you should get a long list of the email addresses (this will take a while to start working on 10000 addresses, so test it with only a hundred or so to see if the list is working and then add the rest).
Then to use the "mailing list" all you have to do is to compose the email to the listname@domain.com. I would however, as earlier recommended, use the listname address in the Bcc: field, or you are likely to get 10000 replies to the list!
Good luck,

Re: How can I send e-mail to 10000 users ??
Since your are to send mails to 10,000 users at once, I would like to share some ideas here.
1) Sendmail does a sequential mail transfer. In case of real email ids, the MX hosts at the other end may not work well as expected all the times. It may take long time to deliver mails to many MX hosts and it will delay the clearing of your out-bound queue due to the sequential style of sendmail. My outbound queue for 17K email ids almost goes more than 24 hours to clear.
2) You may want to tweak the Queuereturn settings in the sendmail.cf, along with the couple of timeout settings. Most notorious of the timeouts is the "client timeout at DATA". Some remote MTAs just love to hang on at DATA.
3) Split that 10K into multiple aliases, thereby creating multiple queues.
4) In case you have a relay server to which your Sendmail server hands over the out-bound mail, that is a perfect solution. Sendmail passes chunks of mails (ncrpts=20??) to the relay.
5) Go for MDAs like Qmail. I heard that it works more parallel than Sendmail, thereby clearing out Queues more rapidly. But, as for me, I stick with the Sendmail since I know it better than any other MDAs.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Anu Mathew

have you been hit by a korean spammer recently (like most of us)?
Perhaps not every mass-mailer from there is a spammer... ;-)
Peace - I know this is off-topic

I bet I get over 50 spam's a day between my business and home email addresses. I guess my "smiley face" was missed ":-)". I really believe that spammers should face the death penalty or something worse, like having to read hillary's book (I bet that one will be very philosophical :-)))))))
I never blame any country for it's ignorant businesses, hell my country has more spamming crap than any other. I never get spam's in french or spanish!
