I sometimes run stuff under nobody, but never mail with it.

FWIW, you don't need synaptics support or driver for vertical scrolling
on a touchpad, only for the horizontal scrolling and some extra features.
The psm driver nor moused has been taught about horizontal scrolling
last time I checked.

Kernel debugging is outlined in the developers handbook and a minute
investigated in searching the archives, the FreeBSD website or even
google, would have shown you that.

You might get some help on freebsd-x11 list.
