I do. :) I don't particularly like the idea of granting permissions
to the local filesystem based on the remote system name while letting
any uucp dialin identify themselves as any system they like. If all
uucp clients shared the same access, then I'd be less inclined to be
as strict, but the only reason I'd still keep this setup is to prevent
one client from stealing another's mail.

Regards,
David
