| I'm trying to access a UUCP address from over here on INTERNET. I can't seem
| to find a way to do this.
| 
| The address I'm trying to reach looks like:
| <user>%<company>.co.jp@uucp.uu.net
                         ^^^^
| UU.NET is recognized by several gateways, but they assert that UUCP is 
| invalid for this domain.

There is no such site named "uucp.uu.net".  There is, however, a
somewhat obscure site called "uunet.uu.net" that people use once in a
while ... try that instead.

Uunet is smart enough to figure out the correct route for your mail
once it has arrived at Uunet.  You can also request to get a mail/news
feed directly from Uunet.  But don't tell anyone or otherwise everyone
will want one :-)
