I transfered some binary files from our Waffle BBS to my home machine
running Amiga UUCP 1.17.  When the files arrived, there was an extraneous
256 bytes, the first few of which looked like they might be part of a 
uuxqt command or something, the rest nulls.

I stripped the extra bytes off and was able to use the files, but I'm
wondering where they came from and what I can do to avoid them in the
future.
