Can I use Waffle  as a store and forward hub for mail? i.e. lots of
PC's running UUPC (or other UUCP implementations) calling into
a central PC running Waffle to retrieve or leave messages?

If not, any suggestions on what can do this?

Thanks.

Jim

        Waffle is very able to do this.  I am currently the mail hub for 
the waffle.atl.ga.us domain park and move megs of mail and news to 
several sites and future sites in town.  You just have to add them to 
your systems file.

	Yes - absolutly - for sure!  That is exactly what UUCP was 
designed for.  Not only could you use it as a local 'hub', but also
connect the 'hub' to the UUCP network.  And you could have several waffle 
sites connecting to the hub, or uupc sites, or *nix sites, or whatever
runs UUCP!
