According to watson@shinobu.sgi.com (David M. Watson, Jr.):

To answer this objection, I offer this (rather safer) version:

	for u
	do
	    if grep "^${u}$" /usr/lib/mail/expired >/dev/null
	    then
		case "$SENDER" in
		*DAEMON|*daemon|*uucp)
			echo root ;;   # Bouncy bouncy
		*)
			echo "$u?Account expired." ;;
		esac
	    else
		echo "$u"
	    fi
	done

As you can see, a little testing goes a long way...
