I have such a beast.... and will probably release it soon.

Any other UUCLEAN*.* which I've released SHOULD BE AVOIDED.... nasty bugs
releated to not switching drives before doing the Grim Reaper bit.

Also, the new UUCLEAN will also come with a new program I wrote, which
will bounce a message back to senders of failed EMail....  So now people
will get a message "This message could not be delivered in X days" ...

The UUCLEAN at halcyon (if it's there) is NOT the right one... the new
version should be v1.2, no less.  DESTROY THE OTHERS!  Thanks...
