I'm not sure if this (303) is a good idea?
Everywhere I look I see uid 5000.

I'm running Dovecot + Postfix on multiple machines,
and I'm always using vmail/5000.

http://www.openchange.org/cookbook/backends/sogo/dovecot.html
https://www.linode.com/docs/email/postfix/email-with-postfix-dovecot-and-mysql-on-centos-5

And as Slacker stated, this is not required for building
packages, so I don't think this should be defined
in http://slackbuilds.org/uid_gid.txt

The vmail user/group is not required for packaging
and fully optional during dovecot usage. Slackbuilds do
not create users/groups so the vmail group should not be
defined there.

For example, on some machines I'm using separate vmail
groups for separate customers, starting with vmail/5000,
vmail2/5001, vmail3/5002...
