Greetings, This may seem like a simple question but being a newcomer to this area, I'm somewhat at a disadvantage. Could someone clarify how one can register/connect a PC running MsDos/Un*x to UUCP and be able to send and receive mail just like the larger Un*x boxes. If I wanted to support rnews, do I HAVE to buy a Sun with huge Eagle drives or is it possible to have a 386 box with a large (>500 Mb) disk? Essentially, what qualifications, magnitude of equip. does one require to be a true Uucp node? And is there a annual fee of some sorts to be a registered node? Any clarification on this matter would be most appreciated. Thanx in adv. Cliff Yamamoto
