Sheldon Hearn 60b3ec4653 Exim 4 does not require numeric values for the compile-time constants
EXIM_USER and EXIM_GROUP.  Don't force numeric values down the throats
of operators who, for some reason, have different numeric IDs for
user mailnull and group mail.

# Since FreeBSD does not supply a user for running an MTA in a sandbox
# by default, use user 'exim', adding it if it does not exist. Even
# if FreeBSD supplied an MTA user, it's neglected to do so for so long
# that every sandboxed MTA under the sun uses its own user, so user
# 'exim' should probably be used forever.
#
# Modern FreeBSD systems already have a group mail.
