Re: Debian 1.2 breaks INN, UUCP

Well, I'll add this to the inn-1.5 package (I would have uploaded it today,
if it weren't that master.debian.org is unreachable). By the way, the
send-uucp.pl and send-uucp.cf is non-standard stuff that was invented on
our site - I'm happy other people are finding it useful too :)

Oh and I'll upload a new UUCP package too this weekend - the old one
seems to be orphaned.
