PASSWDFROM option

I would also suggest PASSWDFROM option to specify the
lowest id in
/etc/passwd to accept mail for. This will prevent mail
being sent to all the
utility users at the beginning of the file, without
having to specifically
exclude them. Of course, since the USEPASSWD option is
at the bottom of the
accept-mail code, it will be possible to make
exceptions to this by adding a
USER line where necessary.
So, if you have PASSWDFROM 100, and mail is received
for a user who isn't
specified with a USER line, /etc/passwd is checked. If
the user is found,
his uid is checked, and if it is >= PASSWDFROM, the
mail is accepted.

USEPASSWD <n/user/NO> - sets the first user to accept, or
turns it off (default).
