This is progress, I now have ossec-maild running, but still no email and 
nothing from ossec in /var/log/mail.log.  Here's what I did:

$ sudo /var/ossec/bin/ossec-control stop
$ sudo apt purge ossec-hids-agent
$ sudo apt purge ossec-hids-server
$ sudo apt install ossec-hids-server

My old keygen file was still there, as was the client.keys file.

$ sudo vim /var/ossec/etc/ossec.conf

  <global>
    <email_notification>yes</email_notification>
    <email_to>my.em...@company.com</email_to>
    <smtp_server>localhost</smtp_server>
    <email_from>root@localhost</email_from>
  </global>


$ sudo /var/ossec/bin/ossec-control start
Starting OSSEC HIDS v3.6.0...
Started ossec-maild...
Started ossec-execd...
Started ossec-analysisd...
Started ossec-logcollector...
Started ossec-remoted...
Started ossec-syscheckd...
Started ossec-monitord...
Completed.


No email.  Then I tried with:
<smtp_server>/usr/sbin/sendmail</smtp_server>

Still no email.

$ sudo cat /var/ossec/logs/ossec.log
