It should deliver emails to local files. That files - according to
documentation - should be created as the user to whom the email is address.
For instance, if an email is addressed to "janek@???", it should be
written to /var/mail/janek. This file should be owned by user "janek".
However, the file /var/mail/janek is being created as user "exim". When I run
exim in debug mode, it says:

UID 53 is user "exim", not "janek".
When I add option "user = $local_part", everything works ok, but I don't
understand why it does not work like that without that option. I thought such
behaviour is the default one.
