Hello!

1) -------------------------------------------------------

It happens that messages go out with this From: field
  From: "Alberto Meregalli (SIC)" <meregalli@cesi.UUCP>

uucp* logicals are here as follows

(LNM$SYSTEM_TABLE)

  "UUCP_ALLOW_DIALIN" = "Y"
  "UUCP_ALLOW_UUCPCMD" = "Y"
  "UUCP_BATCH_NODE" = "V8530"
  "UUCP_BATCH_QUEUE" = "UUCP_BATCH"
  "UUCP_BATCH_USER" = "UUCP_DAEMON"
  "UUCP_BIN" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.BIN]"
  "UUCP_CFG" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.CFG]"
  "UUCP_DATA" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.DATA]"
  "UUCP_DISK" = "SYS$SYSDEVICE:"
  "UUCP_DOC" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.DOC]"
  "UUCP_DOMAIN_NAME" = "cesi.it"
  "UUCP_DUMP" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.DUMP]"
  "UUCP_HOST_NAME" = "cesi"
  "UUCP_LOG" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.LOG]"
  "UUCP_LOGIN_ID" = "[UUCP_LOGIN]"
  "UUCP_MAILSHR" = "UUCP_BIN:UUCP_MAILSHR.EXE"
  "UUCP_MAILSHR_UUCICO_VERSION_DATA" = "!32039,32042"
  "UUCP_MAILSHR_UUXQT_VERSION_DATA" = "!18023,18026"
  "UUCP_MINIMUM_DISKSPACE" = "40000"
  "UUCP_PATH_DATA" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.DATA.MAPSRC]"
  "UUCP_POSTMASTER" = "meregalli,palmirani"
  "UUCP_PUBLIC" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.PUBLIC.]"
  "UUCP_RCVDNEWS" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.RCVDNEWS]"
  "UUCP_REQUESTS" [super] = "V8530::"UUCP_REQUESTS:""
  "UUCP_REQUESTS" [exec] = "NLA0:"
  "UUCP_SITE_OPTIONS_I2UNIX" = "-"
  "UUCP_SPOOL" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.SPOOL]"
  "UUCP_TIME_ZONE" = "+0100"
  "UUCP_TOOLS" = "UUCP_DISK:[UUCP.TOOLS]"

I thought that the From should be <meregalli@cesi.it> !

I don't understand if next problem is related to that one, but one
such message was resent to me because of 'Maximum hop count exceeded'
after it had bounced between two nodes:
