I'm getting a uVaxIII whenever DEC gets around to shipping it, but I
have to run VMS on it..  Are there any implementations of UUCP for VMS
in the public domain, or does any company produce it as a product?  I
found a listing for UVCP in an Oasys catalog, but they don't carry it
anymore.  

Rather than a VMS/UUCP implementation, a utilization of the VMS Foreign
mail facilities would be perfectly acceptable - but I haven't found
anyone who has done anything at all with this (and DEC Reps tend to deny
its existance...).

I do know of some people working a port of uuslave (GNU) for VMS, but
their progress has been fairly slow.  Uuslave isn't as full function as
I'm looking for, anyway.
