You're right Len.

Besides, the existence of 'nobody' is clearly visible when talking to Imail
servers. If the local destination is anything other than 'nobody', Imail
says:

250 ok its for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

If the final destination is 'nobody', Imail always gives a response like
this:

250 ok deliver to alternate

A list of regular users and aliases can still be obtained, even if nobody is
on.
