As I understand the spec the check is only if the user exists (in /etc/passwd). This is always valid, because uucp is part of the default passwd as I saw on a clean sarge -- maybe this changed someone post sarge. >> The fault is the user uucp is created by the >> default installation, but not his home. > > No, the fault is not having users with invalid home directories in > /etc/aliases.

Otherwise the default installation would fail.
