Keywords: XENIX uucp uux undocumented option

F.Y.I:
	The very usefull -r option that prevents uucp/uux from
	starting uucico actualy does work on SCO Xenix 2.1.3.
	This undocumented option allows a mail system or usenet
	news system to place requests in the uucp queue, without
	placing the call.

	Another usefull option (again undocumented) is the
	/etc/default/mail option 'spoolonly' which only
	queues uux mail requests, without starting uucico.
	I have used this option as far back as Xenix 3.0 on
	an Altos 586, so I'm sure it is in many Xenix flavors.
