I am running ISC 2.2.1 and I use uugetty successfully to bidirectionally
transfer email and news to other sites. 

I originally set everything up according to the operating system guide. Things
worked fairly well. But as I have learned more I have done things like tweek
the gettydefs entries to get more reliable connections, etc.
