Your local computer book store can help you find two books in the Nutshell Handbooks series from O'Reilly & Associates, Inc., called Using UUCP and USEnet, and Managing UUCP and USENet. The latter book especially has an _excellent_ reputation. The publisher may be contacted at 1-800-338-6887 outside California, or at 1-800-533-6887 within California, or by post at 632 Petaluma Avenue, Sebastapol, CA 95472. As far as UUCP for the Amiga, write to Matthew Dillon (Matt) at dillon@overload.Berkeley.CA.US, about his AmigaUUCP 1.06 (or forthcoming 1.07) package, or send a message asking to be put on his mailing list to amiga-uucp-request@overload.Berkeley.CA.US, for just correspondence, or to amiga-uucp-patches-request@overload.Berkeley.CA.US for both correspondence and software distributions. As far as I know, it's free. Kent, the man from xanth.
