I also was fighting with Coherent 3.1.0 and the UUCP-Package after my harddisk with 386/ix crashed and I wanted to use Coherent as "EMERGENCY Mailsystem". UUCICO should invoke UUXQT automatically after receiving UUCP-Files. Check Permissions: -r-s--s--x uucp uucp uuxqt (and uucico). When the entry in crontab is proceeded by su uucp it didn't work. Two weeks ago I send a question to MWC but still got no answer (Hal, Norman, where are you?) All stuff in /usr/lib/uucp is group/owner uucp, also in /usr/spool/uucp. In the directory /usr/spool/uucp/.Log you find an entry for uucico and uuxqt. You should try to call out with -x5 or higher to get as many infor- mations as possible. Afterwards you look into these logfiles what goes wrong or what did work. You should find a solution for these problem. I also lost some mails before Coherent UUCP,Mail works as assumed.
