That doesn't answer my question?

But DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST is 'server1.rootunlimited.com' which is not
'susmilch.com'.

OK, we'll go with it it the remarks below.

Here you need to add hash:/etc/mailman/aliases, i.e.,

alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases hash:/etc/mailman/aliases


> virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman,

Remove hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman. It is not used in your case
which is why Mailman doesn't create virtual-mailman.db automatically

If you make the above changes to main.cf, i.e., add
hash:/etc/mailman/aliases to alias_maps and remove
hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman from virtual_alias_maps and also keep
hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/transport-mailman in transport_maps, I think
Postfix will deliver to Mailman.

If you are interested in solving your web server 500 error, show me the
relevant apache error log stuff.
