This isn't true. If you use uucp-dom as the UUCP translation method then normal internet style mail messages work just fine (ie. no bang paths). All you need to do is to have your provide configure uucp for your domain in their /etc/mailertable as: your.domain.co.nz uucp-dom:uucpnodename And it will work fine. >I have a mail relay host (not the machine that I am now writing from) that >is set up to do exactly this ... perform as an MX host for sites using >UUCP over TCP/IP. Yep... we setup schools and small companies who want mail for their network this way. It works *great* and you don't have the problems that you get with dial-up links an smtp.
