You can use P_ZERO in your chat script to set zero parity, but I don't think  
you can force it to use no parity.  See the man page for L.sys for more info.

I had problems similar to yours until I replaced the NeXT UUCP with Taylor  
UUCP.  You may find that many of your problems will go away simply by  
switching to Taylor.  I recommend it.
