Hello, Here are the basic steps needed: Step 1 Create MX record for BBS domain pointing to your machine Step 2 Re-config sendmail.cf from sources to include uucp defines (Make sure to include mailertable support) Create /etc/mailertable entries create /etc/mailertable database Step 3 Configure UUCP I just got through getting a UUCP setup running here for the last UUCP ISP in Houston (that we know of:)). It would not hurt at all to get the ORA books on these 3 subjects DNS & BIND Sendmail UUCP (I can not remember the correct titles sorry) > Helio.
