In simple terms, no...
I can tell you what I have set, and you can see if this works for you
too. I collect all my mail via UUCP.
In /etc/uucp/sys :
# Start of system mailserver
system mailserver
time Any
baud 0
port type tcp
port seven-bit false
port reliable true
port half-duplex false
port service uucp
address 192.168.3.254
chat ogin:-\r-ogin:-\r-ogin: uuuserid word: uupass
Just touch /etc/uucp/port
Thats all it took for me. Then I have a script called "douucp"
I put in /usr/local/bin/douucp
/usr/libexec/uucp/uucico -x1 -S mailserver
/usr/libexec/uucp/uuxqt
sleep 3
/usr/sbin/sendmail -q -v
You can check /var/spool/uucp for Log, and Debug for messages.
