Broken UUCP spooler in FAQ
The UUCP spooler in the FAQ doesn't work at all. On BSD/OS 3.0 at least,
specifying -a"$SENDER" with a blank sender (ie: bounce messages) causes
everything to go to hell. Running preline -df deletes the From line which
is required by sendmail's rmail, or else it refuses the message.

I propose the following:

|preline -dr uux - -r -z -gC -a"${SENDER:-MAILER-DAEMON}" \
SITE!rmail "($EXT3@$HOST)"

It seems to be doing the job here.
