You say your system has created user accounts with UID below 500? I guess you created user account in that UID area, right? Correct me if I am wrong. And you are saying that you have accounts which should be able to receive mail while they don't? Maybe I understand you better if you rephrase a bit what you mean and give some real world examples from your host(s). freshrpms.net has a page which lists UIDs used on Redhat / Fedora systems: http://freshrpms.net/packages/res/uidgid.html Other Linux distributions handles UID numbers differently.
