With this setup, I don't see why you would need the uucp unless they have a dynamic address setup. If they are a static address it should be enough to just make sure that your mail server hits it queue within that 12 hour period a couple of times. And yes, uucp over PPP works just fine. I've had a MX record for my domain for years now and stopped doing UUCP over phone about 4 years ago.
