Well, still no mail.  Something else is needed.  The dead.letter in
/root ends with:
  You need create aliases.db which goes as

alternatives --config mta, choose number 2 (/usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix)

I tried this:

# alternatives --config mta, choose number 2 (/usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix)
-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('

So I thought perhaps the parenthetical portion was a comment so:

# alternatives --config mta, choose number 2

usage: alternatives --install <link> <name> <path> <priority>

                    [--slave <link> <name> <path>]*
       alternatives --remove <name> <path>
       alternatives --auto <name>
       alternatives --config <name>

       alternatives --set <name> <path>
       alternatives --list

common options: --verbose --test --help --usage --version
                --altdir <directory> --admindir <directory>


So still not quite right...


Then, as a root or with sudo, give command newaliases, ofcource you ave
edit /etc/aliases file #person who gets root mail, pointing to some
user.

This part I had.

Then restart postfix.service. You can testsystem with echo test |
mail -s "test message" root in console...

As soon as the alternative is set. Though it would be nice if they distribute postfix with the base install, then this was already handled... Perhaps a bug report after I get it working.
