Well no, sorry for being unclear as to what was meant by ``system account''.
I was speaking of ``system users'' that actually have an entry in
/etc/passwd (ie, bin, daemon, ftp, etc) -- and even more specifically -- the
subset of these users that actually own their home dirs (for whatever
obscene reason -- there are only a few of these in most cases) and hence
_could_ receive mail (which would be stupid).
