Yes, it just depends on whether you want to manage your mailing lists in
Exim (with the corresponding risk of breaking all your email when you
change the configuration), or in a tool that's designed for the job.
If you think you'll rarely or never have to change your configuration, then
just use Exim. However, take a look at Mailman's feature list (or Sympa, or
some other open source mailing list managere), and see whether any of that
could be useful to you. Certainly if any of your lists include people
outside the company, you'll find several things that make DPA compliance
easier.
