And then once that new user has had considerable time to settle, rip
all the user/group stuff from the mta ports and change them to use an
arbitrary user/group that defaults to whatever you added for sendmail.
But if you go about it this way, give the new user:group time to
settle so that ripping the pkg/INSTALL scripts (which are used for
both binary packages _and_ build-from-source ports) breaks only a few
people.
[I think this has been mentioned before, too, but don't try to change
the ids qmail uses or the author may try to stand on certain legal
rights he has retained.]
