The form file for setting the mail name of your system is /usr/lib/ua/Namesys.form. Flen is set to 6, so you'd have only to change that to a larger number to get a longer node name. As far as "Mail Names of Other Systems" is concerned, the only easy fix (that I'm aware of, anyway) is to edit /usr/lib/uucp/L.sys. UA calls /usr/bin/mailsetup to set up connections to other systems. That program is "mc68k executable" and doesn't use form files. Sorry 'bout the incorrect info. Sean
