I would say that MOST list-admins are not particularly knowledgeable
about the technical aspects mailing-list set-up.  I hope that most
site mangers and others who run their own server are a little better.
Then again, there are a bunch of clue-free listowner/server-operators
running lists through dialup connects on small desktop platforms.  I
suspect that you have grossly overestimated the technical competency
of the average listowner.
