No, because I wanted files to retain same username ownership, regardless of 
their ids (since the ids are different between old and new servers). Otherwise 
files which arrive would have an owner of "7919", which is a nonexistent user. 
But I've learned this could be a problem because inside the 
`/var/qmail/users/assign` file Maildir paths are specified with a numeric ID 
(but as I noted previously, I've updated that file to the new uids). 

Are there any other files in QMT which use user ids rather than user names? I 
grep'ed /var/qmail for "7919" and `/var/qmail/users/assign` was the only file 
which contained this.
