The only uucp protocol I'm familiar with is "g", but I've seen floating
around some mention of "e" and "f".  What are they, and why are they still
in use?  What other uucp protocols are there?  What do most sites use? 
My package can only communicate in "g" protocol, so does that means I won't
be able to link up with others that are "e", "f", or "xyzzy"? :-)
