Hi !

Could anyone please mail me a source of the UUCP-e-Protocol ? ( And only
that please, I don't need anything about g and f stuff ! )

I would like to implement it and don't know exactly how it works yet.
I think there are 20 bytes sent for every file with the following contents:

1234\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0
^^^^               ^
 |                 filled with chr(0)'s
 Length in ascii-notation.

then the file is sent. The only errorchecking is testing the length of
the received file. If it is not Ok the connection is closed and the file
erased. 

But how do the cicos know wich one is to send and wich one to receive a
file ? And is there any init-sequence ?

Greetings,
                Carsten
