I'm interested in the topic as a whole. It appears as though I'll be
managing more and more user email accounts. I've tried this before but
ended cutting/pasting 50 plus `mkpasswd` to "passwd username". Don't want
to have to do this every time. Searching on google, I've come across some
hits, though I don't know their value.
