It seems that there is enough interest to post this.  March 89
_Unix_World_ reviewed two MS-DOS products which would do uucp
communications.  I have not used either; I can only relay what
the artical said:

RamNet, from Software Concepts Design, 594 Third Ave., New York,
NY  10016; 212/889-6431.  Menu driven, good for DOS users that
don't want to learn hard-core uucp.  Runs in the background.

UULINK, from Vortex Technology, PO Box 1323, Topanga, CA  90290;
213/390-3920.  For someone who knows and likes a Unix uucp, UULINK
will feel the same on the DOS machine.  Not background, but runs
like Unix uucp.  Has good security, does domain addressing.
