I recently ran into exactly that problem with a site we started
feeding in Cincinatti ..

they told me to add "-n" to the uux arguments and that would
stop ALL messages from their uux.  Specifically:


#! /bin/sh
#
# SendBatch-g -- the 'g' portion of sending stuff out
#
# 'g' is a UUCP only machine, so it handles all the uucp connections.

. /usr/lib/news/PROFILE

cd ${LIBDIR}/outnews



#		  UUCP
#
# very simply add the neighbors' name to the list
for rmt in cbosgd uunet ukecc ukmk2 rayssd acp spca6; do
	if test ${rmt} = spca6; then
		n=-n
	else
		n=
	fi
	for f in ${rmt}.cmd.out.*; do
		if test -f $f -a -r $f; then
		if test \
			${rmt} = cbosgd -o \
			${rmt} = uunet -o \
			${rmt} = ukecc -o \
			${rmt} = rayssd -o \
			${rmt} = spca6
		 then
			( echo '#! cunbatch'
			   compress -c $f ) | \
			if uux - $n -z -r ${rmt}!rnews; then
				rm -f $f
			fi
		else
			if uux - $n -z -r ${rmt}!rnews <$f; then
				rm -f $f
			fi
		fi
		fi
	done
done
