Yeah, well, I thought it was a bug/problem as well but MW explained it to me as
a FEATURE!

From their point of view, the UID should always be unique for an individual.
That way the same person can be in many groups and still have the same UID.
This way their mail software can find you no matter what group you log in under
and you don't have to log in a bunch of times under different groups just to
get all of your mail. It does make sense if you think of it this way.
