You are using '--enable-domain-scale' and have processed a user/group without 
any domain part (aka: your 'root' user you mention above). Since DSPAM can not 
determine the domain part (there is no @....) it uses for such cases the domain 
name 'local' and saves data for such users in the directory 'local'.
