'man 5 postconf' says:
---
default_privs (default: nobody)
The default rights used by the local(8) delivery agent for delivery
to external file or command. These rights are used when delivery is
requested from an aliases(5) file that is owned by root, or when
delivery is done on behalf of root. DO NOT SPECIFY A PRIVILEGED USER OR
THE POSTFIX OWNER.
