By default most implementations of UUCP will not permit remote systems
to execute uux.  If you can avoid that problem, then you need to know
that any arguments with exclamation points need to be parenthesized so
that they are not interpreted as remote file names.  You need
something like
    uux - $ourneighbor!uux '($non_neighbor_system!$cmd)' < $from_file

The next version (1.04) of Taylor UUCP will support
    uux - $ourneighbor!$non_neighbor_system!$cmd < $from_file
