You can use one of the mailer setups with alternate authentication
schemes but for a few users it is probably easier to set up a normal
account but set the shell field in /etc/passwd to /bin/false so
they can't actually log in. If the system mail delivery is to
/var/spool/mail and they only use POP to download (no IMAP with
server-side folders), you can delete their home directory too.
