e protocol is designed for use over an error-free channel, such as TCP/IP.
Specifying ",eg" says to use e protocol first if it is supported, then g
protocol (if e is not supported by the remote system). ",ee" is nonsense
(only e protocol would be used, and it makes no sense to repeat the e),
",ge" says to use g protocol if it is supported (I've never seen a uucico
that didn't support g protocol), then fall back to e -- in practice this
means that g protocol will always be used.
