I use postgresql, not mysql, but I seem to remember mysql's permissions
structure being completely independent from UNIX usernames. So
(assuming I'm remembering correctly), you shouldn't even need to change
the username with which Exim connects to the mysql database, because
it has no relation to the UNIX UID under which Exim is run.
