Simple question.  I have a Sun (mysun)embedded in a monster TCP/IP network, and
have installed a direct serial uucp link to another Sun (otherguy).
I can mail to the remote, no problem, from my Sun :  eg:  mail otherguy\!black
works fine, as does mail black@otherguy.uucp.

What DOESN'T work is, from a third machine (outside, TCP-connected) on my net:

mail black%otherguy.uucp@mysun    or   black\!otherguy@mysun.

I've hacked at sendmail.cf, can't see how I can get mysun to forward mail
from outside to otherguy.    Thanks!
