Well I didn't get any responses so I fixed it myself.  Here is my solution,
and my site is now happy receiveing all batches and sending out either gzip'ed or
compress 12/16 news batches.

I just made a simple mod to my uushell.bat file,  a similar mod to your poll.bat
would also be in order:  Of course this doesn't solve memory problems.


;	uushell.bat modified to handle outgoing/incoming gzip, comp 12 batches.
;
;  Answer the connection
UUCICO -r0 
;
; Copy gzip over the top of compress as it will decompress all types
copy c:\waffle\bin\gzip.exe c:\waffle\bin\compress.exe
;
; Decompress newsbatches
UUXQT
;
; Batch up news for any sites which would like gzip'ed batches
batch -swerple,lsupoz
;
; Copy the old comp16.exe to make 12 and 16 bit batches
copy c:\waffle\bin\comp16.exe c:\waffle\bin\compress.exe
;
; Batch up news for remaining sites how they want it
batch
