- You can the latest UUCP via anonymous ftp from:
-
- ftp.spc.edu in [.decus_uucp]
- mis1.mis.mcw.edu
- ftp.uu.net
- mvb.saic.com in [.decus_uucp]
-
- You can also get it from the latest DECUS VMS SIG tapes, or my U.S.
- Mail from Kent Brodie (brodie@fps.mcw.edu). Note that you have to
- send Kent the tape with a SASE. Contact Kent for more details.

- I use UUPC/extended, which is available from a number of sites,
- including wuarchive.wustl.edu in "mirrors/msdos/uucp". We've used it
- for almost a year now to let our Novell LANs exchange e-mail with VMS.
