Perhaps my experiences will be of some help. Have you set up your /etc/uucp files? This is essential to getting both cu and uucp working. Have you set up `tip' and got it working? The order I took was. 1) tip 2) cu 3) uucp We probably should take this off-line to save some bandwidth. If you would, write me via ``kline@tao.thought.org''. I believe my MX configuration is finally right. gary kline
