Directories(4)
NAME
  Directories - Contains queued requests for file transfers and command
  executions on remote systems

SYNOPSIS
  /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName

DESCRIPTION
  The /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName directories are the uucp program spooling
  directories on the local system.  The uucp program creates a SystemName
  directory for each system listed in the /usr/adm/uucp/Systems file,
  including the local system.

  Each SystemName directory contains queued requests issued by local users
  for file transfers to remote systems and for command executions on remote
  systems.

  The uucp program uses several types of administrative files to transfer
  data between systems.	 These files are stored in the SystemName
  directories. They are:

  Command (C.*) files
      Contain directions for the uucico daemon concerning file transfers.

  Data (D.*) files
      Contain data to be sent to remote systems by the uucico daemon.

  Execute (X.*) files
      Contain instructions for running commands on remote systems.

  Temporary (TM.*) files
      Contain data files after their transfer to the remote system until the
      uucp program can deliver them to their final destinations (usually the
      /usr/spool/uucppublic directory).
