Your missing the point

On a big system with thousands of users you don't want to have thousands of
system accounts.

We run systems up to 250,000 users, and often sync from an LDAP directory,
but we wouldn't have 250,000 system accounts.

You only need a system account if you are going to log into the server..If
you need a server to log into get a network server, and keep the mail server
seperate

But can you log in to that  NT server and use it as a normal account?

I know with Linux and any other form of UNIX that if you want normal
accounts
to telnet or any other form of use that requires authorization through pam.d
or
passwd, you need to have a normal account.  This means
no accounts that share usernames.
