Granted, I configured Mailman 3 for Exim. I stumbled on the lmtp
configuration portion. I didn't realize that for lmtp, that exim acts as a
client to connect to Mailamn that is listening on the port. Fortunately,
the guys on the Debian-exim list clarified that. Second, I missed a
configuration setting that indicated Exim in mailman3.cfg. The mailman
docs for Debian pretty much just point you to the Exim docs. Most
other packages auto configure things. Third, I had an issue with
getting Hyperkitty to archive. For some reason, I didn't get an API
key configured.
I still need to configure reverse dns on the server and probably do some
dmarc or dkim configuration. Plus, I would like to configure the list so
that it says lists.saclug.org, or something like that. But hey, we are
back with "a list".

Well done. I'm not surprised to hear that it was a bit of a bear.

You definitely need rDNS. Many SMTP sites de-facto penalise sending
hosts that lack rDNS -- and some even penalise ones with generic-seeming
rDNS -- despite that not being an RFC mandate.
You're probably aware of this, but there are RFC mandates for:
o must accept mail to abuse@
o must accept mail to postmaster@
o must accept mail from the null sender
On DKIM/DMARC, you might already be aware of my view of those standards
from the Firm Formerly Known as Yahoo:
