I'm on my mobile so can't give you a link but you should read the reference manual section on
'post-installation setup and testing'.

Subject: Missing Entries

I was checking my fresh install of MySQL and noticed I had empt spaces
 or missing entries in some sections when I did a search for users on
 the 'mysql' database. I checked the MySQL FAQ's and Google and nothing
 gave me what I am looking for. I can't understand what this entries
 are blank for:

 mysql> select User, Password, Host, Insert_priv from user;
 +--------+-------------------------------------------+-----------+-------------+
 | User   | Password                                  | Host      | Insert_priv |
 +--------+-------------------------------------------+-----------+-------------+
 | root   | *FDCCC9BE5FC366E7D9714988DBC7F111A950C428 | localhost | Y           |
 | root   | *FDCCC9BE5FC366E7D9714988DBC7F111A950C428 | mail      | Y           |
 | root   | *FDCCC9BE5FC366E7D9714988DBC7F111A950C428 | 127.0.0.1 | Y           |
 |        |                                           | localhost | N           |
 |        |                                           | mail      | N           |

 +--------+-------------------------------------------+-----------+-------------+

 I see there are 3 root users:

 - localhost
 - mail (hostname)
 - 127.0.0.1 (localhost IP)

 But after that there are two entries that are blank for 'localhost' &
 'mail'. Does anyone know what they are and if I can remove them. They
 appear useless and clutter my database. Sorry, I am OCD.
