No problem.  You need to edit /usr/lib/mail/maliases, the machine aliases
file.  Assuming machine "ugh" is the UUCP gateway, and "mary" is the other
machine connected to ugh via Micnet:

Put the following lines in mary's maliases file:

	# All uucp goes through `ugh'
	uucp:   ugh:

(don't forget the trailing colon!)
Put the following lines in ugh's maliases file:

	# All uucp goes through `ugh' (that's me)
	uucp:

(BTW, execmail interprets the machine aliases file.)


Now, if I could only install sendmail, too...   :-)
