I have a couple of questions about the container, if its OK.
Sure it is :)
First, it says to run you create the directory /opt/mailman/mailman-core and /opt/mailman/mailman-web and then do the git clone. What directory should the git clone be in?
You can do clone anywhere you can run commands from. There aren't any files in the repository that you'd be directly using. You'll just be relying on the docker-compose.yaml file from the repo (or one of the other compose files if you choose to use a different database) unless you are going to build the container images on your own instead of using the published ones.
I just do it in my home directory of the user I am running commands as. /opt/mailman could be a good option too.
A couple of more questions -- is there a way to install the web server and the mta in the container, this way I could make the whole thing be independent of my host configs?
You probably don’t want to install mta and webserver in the Mailman containers, you want to add separate containers for them and make Mailman containers talk to them. This will let you keep the container for each component separate and it is just easier to manager.
You would need to add appropriate containers for webserver and mta in the docker-compose.yaml file and figure out the configuration on how to tie them to Mailman. The Mailman container images repo doesn’t provide such a configuration, but there are folks in the channel who have done it and you should be able to find them in this list’s archives.

My docker most machine /etc/postfix/main.cf has
transport_maps = regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_lmtp local_recipient_maps = regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_lmtp relay_domains = regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_domains
# Support the default VERP delimiter. recipient_delimiter = + unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 owner_request_special = no
is that correct? I leave them set to smtp.example.com because the will send out via the docker host machine, and so i ONLY have my actual outbound server listed in /etc/postfix/main.cf on the docker host machine, or do i need to replace smtp.example.com with our outbound server?
Also, If I want to blow away everything away (databse etcc) and rebuild it... what are those steps?
