Most _interactive_ users do. Most automated tasks (e.g. cron) do not have any queueing.
Even if you are trying to dumb the system down to a Mac's pseudo-single-user style, you still need crontab and mail to work - as it does on a Mac.
What happens to emails generated on a Max OSX via crontab or any other automated system? Does it run sendmail or some equivalent of it?
Just curious how they solve it as on a Mac i'd bet you that hardly any typical user will know what root is.
