I've registered my home PC with the UUCP map project AND
registered it in the US domain, in both cases listing
a BSD 4.3 host on the Internet as a neighbor.

What do I have to do to get the UNIX host to relay UUCP mail
sent to the PC?  

Mail sent to unixhost!pc!user LOCALLY already works - but mail
sent from other sites gets bounced, saying "pc!user@unixhost.bigu.edu,
User unknown".  I'm sure that sendmail.cf needs modification to
do this - what is the hack needed?

Besides this, I'm sure that the US domain address needs yet another
mechanism for its mail to get forwarded.
