If you have formail (part of the procmail mail filter package) at your
site, you can use the "|" command to stuff the article into the front
end of a pipeline such as:

| (formail -rk; cat canned.text.file) | /usr/lib/sendmail -t

In your .trnmac file, assign this string to the key of your choice,
substituting the correct location for sendmail your site. If you don't
have formail, you can write a script, perhaps using perl, which will at
least eat the piped-in article, change Reply-To: (if it exists,
otherwise change From:) to To:, tack it on to your canned.text.file
(which should have the Subject: and From: headers), and pipe the result
to sendmail.
