Mailman 3 seems to have taken more effort than Mailman 2.
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:
