You can also easily write a quick perl or shell script to send it out from a file of names and this way you can "nice" the process so as not to bog down the machine.
PHP now offers a command line SAPI that lets you write these programs with PHP. Leave the names in the database, and use PHP's mail() to send the messages. It works very well. I've been using PHP at the command line for quite a while now. 4.3.0 is the first version that creates the CLI version of PHP by default.
