Gauntlet runs sendmail as user "uucp". Remember it uses sendmail as the
backend mailer. it uses SMAP as the SMTP daemon which queues up the
received mail which then gets delivered by sendmail in the background.
Running sendmail as uucp eliminates problems with potential root exploits
in older versions of sendmail.
