(I attempted to post this earlier, but I don't think it got out.)

I've been able to connect UUPC (the PC clone of UUCP, available via ftp
from several sources), so that messages arriving from outside are forwarded
to the appropriate mailbox in LANtastic, or printed if the adressee is not
on the list.  Its written in awk and isn't very sophisticated, but it does
what I needed.  I've seen some references on the LANtastic BBS that imply that 
there are some better (bi-directional) programs out there, some may be 
shareware.
