   UUCPNET n. obs.   The store-and-forward network consisting of all
   the world's connected Unix machines (and others running some clone
   of the UUCP (Unix-to-Unix CoPy) software).   Any machine reachable
   only via a {bang path} is on UUCPNET.   This term has been rendered
   obsolescent by the spread of cheap Internet connections in the
   1990s; the few remaining UUCP links are essentially slow channels to
   the Internet rather than an autonomous network.   See {network
   address}.
