     You could try adding a delay (\d) after the userID - maybe you're
sending things before the remote system wants it?
     Also, is your "wait for password" entry correct? Remember, upper case
and lower case are _not_ treated as the same under UUCICO.

     It'll also _really_ slow you down - which indicates that this is
a timing problem.
     However, if you can't fix it any other way, try -X999 - the capital
letter means "don't tell the remote system I'm in debug mode." You'll get
the slowdown :-p without filling up his logfile.

     Getting a good, reliable L.sys entry can be a problem. It was really
problematic under 1.05D (which I'm still running! Can't wait for V1.08 :-) )
if the remote system doesn't send _exactly_ the same thing every time.
Tinker with timing things for a while, trial and error, using -X9 (btw,
level nine should be the same as level 999, shouldn't it?) and watching
what gets sent and when it starts losing track of where it should be.
