i tried building "UUCP 1.06.1". it worked out of the box - after ./configure
i just added `#define HAVE_SOCKET 1"` to config.h and did "mount -b
/dev/serial2 \\\\.\\com2" in bash. my mount table (relevant part -
everything else is mounted as binary) looks now like this:
[chuck@HYSTERIA]mount|sort|grep serial
\\.\com1 /dev/serial1 native no-mixed,text=binary
\\.\com2 /dev/serial2 native no-mixed,text=binary
\\.\com3 /dev/serial3 native no-mixed,text=binary
\\.\com4 /dev/serial4 native no-mixed,text=binary
the only slight problem i'm having with it, is that the first packet is
always rejected. the session, however, goes on. it looks like this
(/usr/spool/uucp/Log):
Protocol 'g' packets: sent 2, resent 1, received 1
Errors: header 0, checksum 0, order 0, remote rejects 1
also (/usr/spool/uucp/Debug):
Handshake successful (protocol 'g' sending packet/window 1024/7 receiving
1024/7)

did you get similar results? did you look into the problem of rejects?
i'm also very interested in what do you plan to use as local mail delivery
agent. i tried sendmail, but it didn't compile. i tried smail - it compiled
ok, but refuses to work (could be configuration issue) - it just crashes.
