[comp.mail.uucp] UUCP Limits Names to Seven Characters

simpson@trwarcadia.uucp (10/20/88)

Sun OS 3.5.  Uuname -l truncates our hostnames to seven characters.  Is
there any way to get uucp to recognize more than seven characters?
Our server is named trwarcadia and it is truncated to trwarca.  One of our
clients is named minotaur and this is truncated to minotau.  When I send 
uucp files from a machine connected to our server I have to send them
to trwarca!~ rather than trwarcadia!~.  I hear there are aliases on 4.3 BSD
but that won't help me here.
