It would be slightly less confusing if the ids matched.
This machine was installed from an etch netinst CD about three weeks
ago and I have configured exim only via dpkg-reconfigure. I'm pretty
sure the user was created by this line in exim4-config's postinst:
adduser --system --group --quiet --home /var/spool/exim4 \
--no-create-home --disabled-login --force-badname Debian-exim
