Was this just a veiled reference to filling the filesystem, or a bug in {uucp,uucico,uux}? I ask because I have noticed that when we receive a large batch of news, uux doesn't finish executing all of the X.* files. It just goes away, leaving them there until the next time uucico runs and notices them. Has this bug already been found and fixed, or is this because of some {error,omission} I made in installing uucp? (We have 4.1bsd, in case it matters).
