I hope to install a unique system this week that uses exim to handle email
to the internet and smail handling the extensive uucp network that it
interfaces with.

I am assuming from my initial review of the documents that I need to build
a domain database of the uucp sites that I will pass mail to and then
build a director using a pipe transport to move bsmtp to smail for
transmission to the uucp sites.

My question is if anyone else has interfaced exim to a uucp setup with
multiple uucp neighbors and if they would share what they learned. My
reason for using smail and not simply piping the mail to uux is that I
want to take advantage of smail's rsmtp for sending email to some of the
uucp sites.  Smail is great for a large uucp network that is constantly
changing its connectivity and routing.  Its pathalias path file routing
table is great.
