How about:

    fwd = os.popen('/usr/sbin/sendmail -odb -t', 'w')
    fwd.write('To: skip at mojam.com\n')
    fwd.write('To: Randy.L.Kemp at motorola.com\n')
    fwd.write('Subject: Hey there!\n')
    fwd.write('\n')
    fwd.writelines(body)

where "body" is a list of newline-terminated strings.

Any particular reason why you don't want to use smtplib?
