I had to send stuff to a user the other day with a UUCP address and it worked fine. But the mail bounced when I replied to a message THEY sent...My mailer would not follow the path. It seems (at least on my Unix server) that when mail come FROM a UUCP address, it is expanded, and I have to send it back to "user@somewhere.UUCP". I don't know if this works for all mailers, but at least on the one I use I just send it to "user@somewhere.UUCP" and it works.
