You probably really don't want to do that. Lots of mail-related applications expect the group to be "mail", and as Ken points out, you probably don't want anyone in the mail group, as that will give them (probably) full access to the mail system. AND you don't want groups associated with other applications to be used, so that, say, a compromise of the postgresql daemon doesn't also automatically compromise your mail system. Well-established user/group conventions exist for very good reasons; you should follow them. -- Derek D.
