Hi,
Why don't you go the easy way and create the username that the tests expect?

Well many reasons :
- First, I (or other testers) may not have karma to modify the mail server
configuration.
- Then, I don't understand why those paremeters are hardcoded, compared to
MySQL tests for example that offer a way to change hostname/user/password
through bash variables.
- Finally, I sincerely think that changing such parameters easily would help
getting more people run all tests. PHP-QA will get more feedback if not only
the official PHP server can execute all test suite (because of all specific
configurations expected).
