On BSD systems, you can use an alternative mailer in /usr/ucb/Mail.
edit the .mailrc file (or maybe the global Mailrc) and add the command
set sendmail=/somewhere/mymailer
mymailer can do everything it likes with the mail message, but it should
edit the message and then pass it to /usr/lib/sendmail with the original
arguments.
try:
#!/bin/sh
(cat ; cat ~/.personal) | /usr/lib/sendmail $@
