in your S0, the final delivery ruleset, put in a FINAL line of the sort:

R$*@$*	            $#uux$@emory$:emory!$2!$1              #uux host!rmail...


now, IF you do not have a  uux mailer rule, then the uux mailer should look
like this:

Muux,           P=/usr/bin/uux, F=DFMRChuU, S=6, R=5,
                A=uux - $h!rmail $u


note, that the Sender rule for me is rule 6, and the recip is rule 5. pick
some numbers for yours that are not all ready in use.

my S6 and S5 are as follows:

#       ruleset five: ruleset R for mailer uux          #
#               rules for uucp RECIPIENT REWRITING      #
#               <address@local-host....> => address     #

#               <user@host.. => host...!user            #
