Some general questions about UUCP for netland

Is UUCP a 'reliable' error correcting protocol?

Also, I know that UUCP, after making a call, will try to send all
traffic between the nodes on that same call.  Is there a way to delay
how long UUCP waits until it kills the connection? (i need to send a
file, do some remote processing, and send back a file; hopefully on
one call)

Thanks in advance
