Bug#328615: Debian-exim username considered bad

[Michael Stevens]

Package: exim4
Version: 4.50-8

I have the following exim4 packages installed:

ii  exim4          4.50-8         metapackage to ease exim MTA (v4) installati
ii  exim4-base     4.50-8         support files for all exim MTA (v4) packages
ii  exim4-config   4.50-8         configuration for the exim MTA (v4)
ii  exim4-daemon-l 4.50-8         lightweight exim MTA (v4) daemon

This creates a local user:

Debian-exim:x:102:102::/var/spool/exim4:/bin/false

This username:

a) Contains a capital letter.I cannot find any other unix system I
have access to that has a user with a capital letter in the username.

b) Contains the word 'Debian', which seems rather redundant, given
that it's on a debian system. If it's really felt that the word
'Debian' is appropriate, I propose all other debian system users have
'Debian-' prepended to their usernames.

c) Is too long for the output of common tools like ps, and is
truncated to 'Debian-', which is useless for working out the purpose
of the user.

I suggest it be changed to something like 'exim' or 'exim4' in a future release.
