  Sendmail cf/README - UUCP Mailers
The choice of which one to use is partly a matter of local preferences and what is running at the other end of your UUCP connection.
Unlike good protocols that define what will go over the wire, UUCP uses the policy that you should do what is right for the other end; if they change, you have to change.
If you are using one of the domainized UUCP mailers, you really want to convert all UUCP addresses to domain format -- otherwise, it will do it for you (and probably not the way you expected).

  UUCP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
UUCP was originally written at ATandT Bell Laboratories, and early versions of UUCP are sometimes referred to as System V UUCP.
The original UUCP was rewritten by ATandT researchers Peter Honeyman, David A. Nowitz, and Brian E. Redman and the rewrite is referred to as HDB or HoneyDanBer uucp which was later enhanced, bug fixed, and repackaged as BNU UUCP ("Basic Network Utiltites").
UUCP over TCP/IP (preferably encrypted, such as via the SSH protocol) can be used when a computer doesn't have any fixed IP addresses but is still willing to run a standard mail transfer agent (MTA) like Sendmail or Postfix.

 UUCP   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
UUCP (Unix to Unix Copy) is used to support Usenet news service (which competes with the newer INN service) and can be used optionally with the sendmail mail transfer agent program.
UUCP is used request a file transfer to or from a remote machine.
Depending on the version of UUCP you are using and the command line options the user specifies, a data file may also be created which contains an actual copy of the file to be transferred.

 ONLamp.com -- Mobile Email with UUCP
UUCP provides an integrated solution for sending and receiving email, and is particularly well suited for systems that are not permanently connected.
UUCP uses a set of configuration files to specify how to contact the different machines in its "UUCP network," the commands remote machines may execute, phone numbers and connection scripts for modem connections, etc. These files typically live in /etc/uucp.
UUCP is, at its heart, a mechanism for transferring data between machines and running commands.

 UUCP Internals Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
UUCP `g' Protocol ================= The `g' protocol is a packet based flow controlled error correcting protocol that requires an eight bit clear connection.
UUCP `j' Protocol ================= The `j' protocol is a variant of the `i' protocol.
UUCP `x' Protocol ================= The `x' protocol is used in Europe (and probably elsewhere) with machines that contain an builtin X.25 card and can send eight bit data transparently across X.25 circuits, without interference from the X.28 or X.29 layers.

 uucp
Each file argument is either a pathname on the local machine or is of the form system!path which is interpreted as being on a remote system.
A path- name beginning with a simple ~ starts at the UUCP public directory; a pathname beginning with ~name starts at the home directory of the named user.
For example uucp sys1!~user1/file1 sys2!~user2/file2 ~user3 will generate two separate jobs, one for the system sys1 and one for the system sys2.

 ONLamp.com -- Secure Batch Email with UUCP and SSH
UUCP is a batched protocol; therefore, it enables you to leave your email unpolled for long periods of time without risking its loss.
UUCP is also resilient on failed transfers and can resume unfinished transfers where they stopped.
UUCP can poll at any time interval you wish, allowing you to queue mail for a whole network for as long as you wish.

 Commands Reference, Volume 5 - uucp Command
The uucp command is a Basic Networking Utilities (BNU) command that copies one or more source files from one system to one or more destination files on another UNIX system.
The uucp command accomplishes the file transfer in two steps: first, by creating a command (C.*) file in the spooling directory on the local computer and then by calling the uucico daemon to send the request to the specified computer.
If the uucp command is used with the -C flag to copy the files to the spool directory for transfer, the uucp command creates not only a command file, but also a data (D.*) file that contains the actual source file.

 Layout of UUCP Transfers and Remote Execution   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Vital to the understanding of UUCP is the concept of jobs.
UUCP does not generally call the remote system immediately to execute a job (else you could make do with kermit).
When a connection to the remote machine is established, UUCP transfers the files describing the job, plus any input files.

 RXN Communications FAQ - UUCP
Although 20 years have passed since the first version of UUCP appeared, it is still very much in use, doing the same basic things." --from Ed Ravin et al, " Using & Managing UUCP ", O'Reilly & Associates, Inc., 1996.
UUCP allows systems that do not have a permanent connection to the Internet (such as dialup computer bulletin boards and small company offices) to send and receive internet email and usenet news, for multiple users, in a store and forward manner, over existing dialup phone lines.
This makes UUCP a useful option for sites without a dedicated telephone line (small offices) or sites with additional needs for their telephone line (electronic bulletin board systems).

 UUCP Email Gateway
UUCP, the UNIX-to-UNIX Copy Program, is a protocol used by UNIX systems to copy files between remote dial-up sites.
By installing Interchange with a UUCP gateway for your messaging server you'll be able to send mail and transfer files too.
The Interchange UUCP gateway will call the UNIX host automatically when there is outgoing mail to deliver and check for incoming mail from UNIX at regular intervals.

These are some of the things that the uucp technology allows one to do and we have tried to use it to our maximum advantage.

There would also be serious problems with the shell and with the UUCP transport mechanism.) Having an established, well documented, and extensible family of standards already defined by the ARPA community, we choose to adopt these standards for the UUCP zone as well.
If a host has any significant amount of traffic sent to a second host, it is normally expected that the two hosts will set up a direct UUCP link and make an entry in their tables to send mail directly, even if they are in separate domains.

Longer names may work for some uucp implementations but not all, so it is safest to stick to seven or less, preferably all lower-case letters.
Since uucp is a store-and-forward system, messages are stored on each of the neighbours, and transferred when the dial-up happens.
However if you are providing uucp service for other sites, or you have some machines on your network which can receive mail via direct SMTP connections, you need to add some 'intelligence' to the mail routing.

 UUCP for the Macintosh   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The Mac Implementation of UUCP is quite a challenge for the average GUI-oriented Macintosh user; or at least it used to be until the recent advent of MacUCP.
The general requirements for running UUCP are simple and straightforward: Besides a Macintosh which runs System 7 or higher, one only needs a physical connection to the Internet consisting of either a Modem or a LAN.
One of the reasons for the meagre significance of UUCP used to be the rather limited choice of old software which on top of it was only to install with the help of ResEdit.

UUCP, a UNIX program with a long history, remains interesting even today because it is a simple way to share resources and transfer files from one computer to another.
UUCP became popular because of its use by the Usenet, but it remains popular today because it works well on small systems with limited resources.
UUCP and Usenet are sufficiently separated now to make it inefficient to discuss them both in the same book.
