...  But it also seems that uucp mail could learn a
few tricks from the Internet system.  
/* ---------- */

uucp has learned a few tricks, not from the internet, but
from common sense.

the latest version of uucp notifies the issuer (*not*
previoushost!uucp) of problems.  if a message is stuck in
the spool for a day, a warning is sent back to the issuer.
after a week, the message is removed, with another
notification.  in both cases, the message is included in
the notification.  is this how the internet does it?
