Thank you for being more helpful and understanding.

Let me provide the following information which indicates either:
1> That there is some very strange time warp occurring -or-
2> I still don't understand something that is supposed to
 be blatantly obvious

My syslog:
 sys1 postfix/local[239]: fatal: open database
   /etc/aliases.db: No such file or directory

Simple enough? But what about this?
  postconf -n:
  alias_database = dbm:/etc/mail/aliases <------- WHAT?????!!!
  command_directory = /usr/sbin
  config_directory = /etc/postfix
  daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix
  debug_peer_level = 2
  inet_interfaces = all
  mail_owner = postfix
  mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq
  manpage_directory = /usr/man
  mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, $mydomain
  mydomain = softwaremisfits.com
  myhostname = sys1
  mynetworks_style = subnet
  myorigin = $mydomain
  newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases
  queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
  readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix
  sample_directory = /etc/postfix/samples
  sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail
  setgid_group = maildrop
  smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMPT $mail_name ($mail_version) ...

And running newalises gives the following:
  postalias: fatal: unsupported map type: dbm
