You have two choices (to my knowledge).  You can modify sendmail.cf to initiate  
transfers at the moment you send each mail message as documented in "Network  
and System Administration" -OR- you can read the man page on cron and add an  
entry to /etc/crontab.local to run uucico at some interval (also see "NaSA").
