It can be done, but I can't help with details. The Excelan software I
have includes a "pseudo-serial" link device. After opening it, I send
the name of the system to which I want to uucp, then treat it as a
normal connection. It works much like doing a telnet to the system.

Since I have it, obviously I haven't looked too hard at how it works
(I've been getting SMTP working). Hope this helps.
