- I believe you'll find that sends from a directory accessable to both uucp
- and the file's owner will work. Perhaps /usr/spool/uucppublic ? The mode of
- the directory was likely NOT set to 777 in your testing (and at least an execute
- permission to uucp for all above it in the tree-path as specified).
