[comp.mail.uucp] UUCICO problems on Sun 4/280 SunOS 4.0.3

gorpong@telxon (Gordon C. Galligher) (08/05/89)

Machine:
	Sun 4/280
	SunOS 4.0.3
	Telebit Trailblazer at 19200bps
	Using Serial port B

Quick synopsis of problem:
	SunOS 4.0.3's uucico program does not seem to want to send mail.
	Receiving mail from remote uucp sites does not seem to be a problem,
	sending/receiving uucp transmissions (generated by 'uucp' not 'mail')
	do not seem to be a problem, but sending mail outside of the SUN 
	results in the following excerpt of a -x9 to uucico:

		proto started g
		*** TOP ***  -  role=1, wrktype - S
		wmesg 'S' D.xxxxB005f D.xxxxB005
		send 210
		rmesg - 'S' rec h->cntl 40
		state - 10
		rec h->cntl 40
		state - 10
		rec h->cntl 40
		state - 10
		alarm 1
		send 210
		....
		rec h->cntl 10
		state - 6000
		got FAIL

	
	I realize that this is not a whole lot to go on, but it is a definite
	problem with ONLY mail.  I have had a couple of problems with the
	xmille part08 from osu-cis and that may be related, but I am not sure.

Request:
	HELP!!

If any of you have run into something like this before on a SUN, or any system,
then I would be glad to hear anything you may have to offer.  I have set up a
few UUCP sites before and I have never encountered this problem!  Please
respond by e-mail, and if there is sufficient interest, I will post my results
to the net.  Thank you all very much.
