[-- Attachment #1 --]
I recently saw commits to -CURRENT to add standard users for sendmail (or
other MTAs) to run as in place of root.  This is something I've actually
wanted to do for some time, but I always seem to miss some critical
permissions change somewhere.

What do I need to change to my existing -STABLE setup to incorporate
sendmail running as non-root?  Or, even better, if I'm installing exim from
scratch, what do I do to it to run as non-root?  I assume the spool and mail
directories need to be changed, but I don't want to give away too much
permission.  And what users/groups should I add to keep my system in line
with the new standard users?  (Of course, if this change is going to be
MFC'd then I'll just wait for that.)

Thanks for any help,

--K
