I notice that the encrypted password is different for each entry. Why is this so? Is the key that is used different.
Hint: use the passwd command to set the same password for a regular account. Observe that the contents of /etc/passwd change every time, even if the password is the same.
Also, why was the maildir not added when I originally did
this?
In the account record, if the maildir is not specified it gets defaulted to $HOME/Maildir.
