I am setting up the network mail between our apollo and vax (bsd4.2).
I can send mail one direction i.e. Vax --> Apollo, but not Apollo --> Vax.

While debugging, I found that the ownership of some of the files were screwed 
up. The directory /usr/spool/uucp resides on node 52c4. If I list
the directory on 52c4 ALL Ownership is correct.

If I list the directory on ANY other node in the network I get the
following:                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
total 59

-rw-rw-rw-  1 roland          0 Jan  8 15:29 AUDIT
drwxrwxrwx  1 uucp         1024 Jan 27 20:25 C.

drwxrwxrwx  1 uucp         1024 Jan  8 15:29 XTMP

I tried to use root, sys_admin, and locksmith id's to change (by using
/etc/chown) the 'roland' to  'uucp' - nothing happened. 
I also tried to create a new file and change to uucp -- 
it also changed to 'roland'. The file /etc/passwd shows proper and unique 
user-ids. WHAT IS GOING ON??!!?!?!?!

This is driving me crazy. If any kind soul in ApolloLand knows about this,
or has experience installing mail over uucp on Aegis:DOMAIN/IX 9.2
could you please give a few tips my way!

Many Thanks in Advance
