[comp.mail.uucp] New to Echo and UUCP

Bret.Johnson@p0.f450.n226.z1.FIDONET.ORG (Bret Johnson) (06/22/91)

Hi,
  I am new to this Echo and  to UUCP.
  I have Coherent 3.1 and soon 3.2.  I am looking for a site in the
 Southeastern area of Ohio to call,poll or what ever to get/send mail
FTP's and a small newsfeed. If anyone can help please let me know...

One Problem with Coherent right now (I to not know if it is addressed in
 the 3.2 release) is that it only handles site names up to 7 chars.
I understand that this is not like the other UUCP's out here..  How can I
 fix this?

I have tried to get on at  OU (Athens Oucs.boss) But,  I think the 7 chars
 thing is realy the prob.  also, I get 2and or 3ard message errors?????

I just talked the sysop intopulling this Echo I really do not have any idea
 what it is so, if this is not right  please let me know...

Also, Can I get a DOS UUCP?  If so What's the name of the  Binaries..

Thanks,
 BJ
