I asked this question a while back and found out that the specifying the
grade like that in the Systems file only seemed to show up on BSD systems.
AT&T System V doesn't support this feature, why I don't know...  They on
Sys V is only good for forcing jobs ahead of others.  (ie.  mail before
news, no matter when mail was queued -- even after news)  

The format is D.sysGsequence for the uucp files, where sys is the system,
G is the single grade letter and the sequence.  By using different letters
will change the sorting of the directory, and hence the priority of queued
jobs.
