I'm maintaining two machines which run INN and connected to Internet
via UUCP.

About incoming news, there are nothing to do.  uuxqt executes rnews,
and rnews offers news to innd.

Outgoing news, you must execute send-uucp to make UUCP batch.  Add a
line

> 15 * * * * news /usr/local/news/lib/send-uucp and rim
                                                ~~~~~~~ your UUCP neighbors

to /etc/crontab.

If you want to make a compressed batch, it is better to edit send-uucp 
(it is shell script).

Hope this helps.
