Has anyone else noticed that if you create a NeXT account called "postmast", it
doggedly insists on pointing its login directory at the login directory for
the "me" account even if you explicity specify a different login directory to 
/etc/nu such as, say, /xyz/postmast

Is there a way around this?

Also, I note that the account "me" is not found by /etc/nu -m ... is there any
way of getting /etc/nu -m to recognize that it does exists? (the account 
definitely *does* exist at least to the point of allowing you to login to it
and use passwd to change its passwd!).

Thanks
