 Since different pieces of the email infrastructure will need to interoperate, it is a good idea to create a specific user to store all the emails on the filesystem. This user will own the email storage folders which i assume will be located under **/home/vmail**. I choose UID and GID 5000 since the ones  up to 1000 are reserved for system users. Since different pieces of the email infrastructure will need to interoperate, it is a good idea to create a specific user to store all the emails on the filesystem.
