Not understanding excactly why you'd need a random string, I'd suggest doing a simple
password() call on each row's recipient
ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN rand_string char(16) NOT NULL;
UPDATE my_table SET rand_string=password(email);
This gives you a 16 char long (I think) random string.
Sending this rand_string to the coresponding email, is beyond SQL.
Export in a file the email and corresponding rand_string and from there beat the file
to death with bash or perl or whatever scripting lang uage you want.
