Yup, you would use mutil's PostTextFiles stanza to do this.  e.g:

[=== begin postrules.ini ===]

[general]
PostTextFiles = true
logfile=mutil.log
logcache=true
loglevel=2
logtype = 0

[PostTextFiles]
totalfiles = 1

file1_name    = echorules.txt
file1_baseidx = 2
file1_from    = Sysop
file1_to      = All
file1_subj    = My subject
file1_addr    = 0:0/0
file1_delfile = false

[=== end postrules.ini ===]


Each time you run ./mutil postrules.ini it will post that text file to that 
specific base ID.  You'll just setup an event in Mystic (or cron) to run 
that as often as you'd like that text file posted.
