Re: Proposal: Add generic username for 3rd-party MTA's

 * differences are 1) entries in inetd.conf are sample entries only, 2)
 * ports have no way of adding those entries to inetd.conf themselves
 * (since touching /etc is illegal).

Uh, you're contradicting yourself.  Touching /etc is not illegal.

 * 2)  The current system for having ports add their own usernames and
 * groupnames is very simple.  It is a little messy in that there are a
 * number of different pkg/INSTALL scripts, some of them broken to
 * various degrees.  Simply adding an mta username:groupname won't solve
 * that problem.

Besides those that add uid/gids, most shell ports add entries to
/etc/shells.
