I'd like to setup my FreeBSD system to forward non-local mail to a
neighbouring UUCP host (in the same domain), while using domain-style
addressing, and receive mail from that host for local delivery.  

The UUCP connect is working ok, but incoming mail isn't being delivered to
local users.  Also, if I mail to a local user, /var/log/maillog says the
mail is 'sent' but it never appears in the local user's mailbox.

Does anyone have a sendmail.cf that will accomplish the first objective?
Also, does anyone know what the problem with local delivery might be?
