The ExecStart directive expects an absolute path to the executable---refer to systemd.service(5). In your email, you are missing the leading "/" between the "-" and "sbin/agetty". Providing a pastebin of your autologin service file, the "ln" command you used, and the output of "systemctl status autologin@tty1" (or whatever you named your service file) would be very helpful in troubleshooting this. Also, please send plaintext-only emails to this list (i.e. no HTML-based emails).
