Error is:
newaliases: fatal: /etc/mailname/: cannot open file: No such file or directory

You replaced /etc/aliases by the package maintainer version, overriding local changes. You might want to edit that file again to reflect your configuration.

That said, if, like mentioned in bug 644534, there was a security breach, I'd advise to completely reinstall the system.

the past and my 1 tb of photos?

Please delete #3, personal data from email reply is on here.

You should backup all the data (photos/html) and restore it on the new system (after checking it was not tampered with).

Re: comment #3, that's not something in my power... you might want to use the "Contact Launchpad Support" link below.
