Subject:   -49- Why isn't a valid user getting their mail?

  IRIX' mail system requires "valid users" to have both valid password
  file entries (whether local or via NIS) and home directories. The
  latter often trips one up when installing POP servers and whatnot,
  where home directories aren't really necessary. Just make a fake
  one.
