Email Notifications --- "mass production" of similar emails

I have a small problem.
I have customized my Create User form to send out Email Notifications
to several different individuals, whenever a new user is created in IDM.
Here's the thing : about 90% of the Email Notifications are identical
(same body, same subject, etc). But, they are going to different people
in the organization (which means that the Receipient's address is
different for each email being sent).
Of course, I can simply created 100 email templates, all of which are identical, but each one containing a different Receipient.
But, isn't there a much simpler way to do this? Is there a way to call
on the SAME email template, but ---- depending on the particular
situation ---- use separate Recipient addresses?
Perhaps, there is a Rule which I can create to automatically insert the
appropriate Recipient's address for each email notification? Therefore, instead of creating 100 email templates, I only need to create just one.
Any tips, please?
Thanks

That's what email templates are for... create a template and use it multiple times :)
So in your case, you would create 1 template and use the 'notify' workflow service to send it to multiple recipients. If you have some variable within your template (such as firstname), the same may be passed as arguments to the 'notify' call.
Here's an example:
<Action name='send email' application='com.waveset.provision.WorkflowServices'> <Argument name='op' value='notify' /> <Argument name='template' value='EmailTemplate-name' /> <Argument name='toAddress' value='accountId or email-address' /> <Argument name='attributes'> <map> <s>firstname</s> <ref>firstname</ref> </map> </Argument> <Argument name='catch' value='notificationException' /> </Action>
