Is it possible with Exim 3.x to specify a group of trusted users based on UID
number without the need to get a username for the specific UID?
I don't think that the actual trusted_groups option will help here as
the UID's don't exist in the /etc/passwd file and exim seems to be
stuck on the UID lookup. The webserver will force the CGI's to use a
specific UID number and GID.
We've recently switched to a clustered group of servers and cgi
processes are breaking as they call exim with the -t flag. I don't
particularly want to propagate the password file across the cluster,
but will propagate a group, etc. if this can be used to safely tell
exim to ignore the UID from cgi processes (all other calls to exim
are handled by mysql lookups for local delivery, etc.).
