I'm trying to write a program that will run under MS-DOS (and work with
UUPC) that will work like the uucp(1C) command under Unix.  Currently,
UUPC can handle receiving files from the remote system (i.e., "uucp
~uucp/foo.bar mydos!~/foo.bar"), however, it manages to create an endless 
loop when you try to go the opposite direction from the Unix machine 
(i.e., "uucp mydos!~/foo.bar ~uucp/foo.bar").  Since UUPC doesn't
come with a "uucp" workalike, I'd like to make one.  I need the format
of the control files that UUPC uses.  There seem to be 3 files involved
with outgoing mail - D_FOO_.SEQF, D_BAR0.SEQF, and C_FOO_.SEQF, where
FOO is the name of the remote system, BAR is the name of your system,
and SEQF is the current sequence number.  D_FOO_.SEQF seems to contain
the actual message body.  The other two files seem to be some sort
of control files.  What is their format?
