Standard uucp commands (rmail/rnews etc) will assign a default grade. There's an info document describing Taylor uucp on your system (can't remember exactly where at the moment sorry :-() which might explain more about grades. Otherwise find yourself a copy of the O'Reilly book that covers uucp. I've used uucp for a number of years, but have never needed to deal with grades thankfully. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."
