Blast from the past. I haven't dealt with UUCP in at least 10 years. FTP
and always-on Internet connections have made it sort of passe.

You need to use a Global UserTag, as usual when calling an
external program:

UserTag uucp Order from to
UserTag uucp PosNumber 2
UserTag uucp Routine <<EOR
sub {
	my ($from, $to) = @_;
	system "uucp .....";
}
EOR

I won't even begin to try and remember the calling parameters.
As I recall there was an arcane Systems file, along with a number
of other definitions and configuration. If you think MiniVend is
hard to configure.... 8-)
