Majority of people living in bad neighborhoods would be news. I´ll take
sides if that happens.

For how long did you stick with just UUCP after SMTP entered the scene?

We actually run UUCP over telnet for quite a while after SMTP happened.


I know of one ISP who, in the spirit of customer service, are still providing 
UUCP to two customers now who are still running Wildcat 4.x and Terminus on 
OS/2.

It's not dead yet, although many have tried to kill it.
