I had similar problems, mail arrives, bounced or disappeared. I tried it that way: I used a proper Mail as arrived with UUCP and wrote: rmail joachim < mailfile. The mail never arrives but now I got the message: /bin/lmail not found (I used the combination SMAIL 2.5 and WMAIL 3.63). You should check if rmail works before you blame uucp. You should also check that the permissions in /usr/spool/uucp are all uucp. Hope that helps Joachim (joachim@jrix.radig.de) x

You also can compare the permissions with those on the distribution disk 3. Just mount it and compare. BTW: WMAIL 3.63 is in comp.os.minix. COMB, WMAIL and SMAIL 2.5 combined and we have the ideal mailing system for Coherent. For Bill Huttig: > /bin/lmail ........ I made a link to WMAIL afterwards called lmail (I installed WMAIL as distri buted and had /usr/bin/lmail. I just want to tell that you not always got an error message if something doesn't work. So I tried it step by step after mails disappeared in the bitbucket. Disappearing: I tried to reply to your answers, they crossed the ocean but bounced.
