I'm familiar with this approach.  Sure, you can diddle your dialer
to turn off MNP, but it is not possible to reliably turn it back on
again at the end of an outgoing uucico connection.  Problem is (at
least on the MultiTech) that there aren't separate settings for dialin
and dialout auto-MNP mode.  So, when a uucico dialout connection
finishes, auto-MNP mode is now off for dialins.

P.S.  I wish these backward hi-tech comanies like MultiTech
      would get hooked up to the net!  They have modems coming
      out of their ears; all they need is a computer.
