Actually, this seems to point at the need to send files via mail
rather than uucp.  If you want to send a file through a heterogeneous
environment you can't trust uucp to do it for you.  Thus, because
regular mail is more widely supported, people end up having to use
it rather than something that only honey danber uucp supports.
