This new user/group will be used for command line submissions. UID/GID 25 is suggested in the sendmail documentation and has been adopted by other operating systems such as OpenBSD and Solaris 9. mailnull - The default value for DefaultUser is now set to the uid and gid of the first existing user mailnull, sendmail, or daemon that has a non-zero uid. If none of these exist, sendmail reverts back to the old behavior of using uid 1 and gid 1. Currently FreeBSD uses daemon for DefaultUser but I would prefer not to use an account used by other programs, hence the addition of mailnull. UID/GID 26 has been chosen for this user. This was discussed on -arch on October 18-19, 2001.
