Problems UUCPing over TCP line

I am experiencing difficulty getting UUCP working over TCP/IP.

I am attempting to connect to a remote host which is running Taylor UUCP.
I am using the standard SCO UUCICO (and have also tried v1.04 of Taylor UUCICO
with the same results.)

Basically, what appears to be happening is as follows:

I connect to the remote system fine, but for some reason my system thinks
the file the remote system is sending to me is 1+ gigabytes in size. Naturally,
its not. Its actually a 3k piece of test e-mail.

I have included a sample UUCICO debugging session for review. Anyone have
any ideas?

	try using "e" or "x"

	and stick to SCO if you can, if you run the SCO OS.

No, not at all. Use "i" and stick to taylor uucp. Far more reliable,
better configuration.
