If Postgres is rightly installed, the default system postgres (with  
default "postgres" password") has been created during the installation  
process : so it exists. Else the installation process didn't complete.

To see if postgres is running normally lauch the activity monitor app  
and search the postgres thread. To see if the "postgres" user is  
rightly set, test "su - postgres" at the shell prompt and, then if you  
are prompted for the password, type "postgres". If something goes  
wrong, postgres need to be reinstalled (prefer the Marc Liyanage's  
installer -- <http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/postgresql/>).

Seems OK.

Don't tell RR to connect MySQL if you want to access a PostgreSQL  
server...
