R$*<@$+.UUCP>$*   $#tcp $@uunet.uu.net $:$1<@$2.UUCP>$3   route uucp
                ^      ^              ^                 ^
               tab    ^^^            ^^^               tab
                     space          space

I think you want the spaces where indicated, and make sure the other
'white' space are tabs.  At least that's what works for me.
