Question: Should uucp be able to function over a flow-controlled
	network that uses XON/XOFF as flow control.  It appears
	that the uucp conversation hangs for large messages
	over our DCA stat mux network.  If there is a way
	to make uucp work, I would like to know it.  If the
	packet-size negotiation could be inhibited from increasing
	the packet size that might help.  KERMIT seems to
	work just fine over the same network.
thanks.
