freebsd-ports/mail/exim/pkg-install
Sheldon Hearn 06b84adc7d Build Exim with compile-time defaults for exim_user and exim_group.
Use the newly added mailnull user, and the now well-established group
mail.

The use of compile-time defaults for these values is not required for
many sites, but are important for more exotic applications.

This ensures that the packages are useful to the widest audience
possible.

# Since FreeBSD does not supply a user for running an MTA in a sandbox
# by default, use user 'exim', adding it if it does not exist. Even
# if FreeBSD supplied an MTA user, it's neglected to do so for so long
# that every sandboxed MTA under the sun uses its own user, so user
# 'exim' should probably be used forever.
#
# Modern FreeBSD systems already have a group mail.
