Netland wizards:

	I am looking for some information on UUCP in the following areas:

	1.	Reliability:   - what checking is done to insure that
				 transmitted files are complete?

	2.	Restartability: - when errors are detected how often and
				  for how long is the transmission attempted
				  before UUCP gives ups?

				  is the sender notified of the failure ??

	Any answers or leads to articles/documentation is appreciated.


	Thanks in advance,
