It would of course be very difficult for a non-technical person to manage
mailing lists based on sendmail configuration entries on his own. It
would be ridiculous to even attempt it, in fact. But there are hundreds
of non-technical people who manage LISTSERV mailing lists successfully,
with the occasional help of a helpdesk person or LISTSERV maintainer.
Don't take my word for granted; ask for testimonies on the LSTOWN-L list
:-)
