Hello, network enthusiasts!  This may SOUND like a silly question, but  
there's actually a very good reason for it:
Is there any way I can uupoll the uucp server that receives my mail using  
the internet?  I know the server has a valid address, and using tellnet  
I've successfully logged in manually onto my uucp account there (though  
with the uucico shell, that doesn't do me much good).  I am interested in  
doing this because I have access to SLIP service, but since under the  
current arrangement my IP address changes every time I bring up the SLIP  
connection, I can't reliably receive mail by internet.  Since the SLIP  
connection is sometimes up for a couple hours at a time, my modem isn't  
free for UUCP use, and my mail backs up significantly.  If anyone can pass  
on an appropriate L.sys entry or other pointers, I'll be eternally  
grateful.
