the common unix system account names, including root, are blocked from
use in phpgw.  When using email, the account password is stored in the
session, which is easily readable by any script or cgi that also runs
under apache, and so early on in the project it was decided to block
the system account to reduce that security issue.  Unfortunately,
storing the password in the session is a nessicity for email to work,
all webmail have to do this.
