I am having problems getting my UUCP to send files and mail.  The direct 
connection is established and working fine.  I have uugetty on both sides
and have no problem connecting both ways with cu.  However when I try
to send mail or files, they just sit in queue.  When I run Uutry, it seems
to be connecting ok, but it hits a certain point and just gives me alarm 1,
alarm 2... every couple of seconds and finally bomb on alarm 10.  I have
been unable to determine what the alarm message means.

If it is of any consequence, one machine is 386 running ISC 3.2, the other
is an NCR Tower 32/850.

Following is the output from Uutry, can anyone tell what is going on?
