2 definitions for UUCPNET From Jargon File (4.3.1, 29 Jun 2001) :
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.
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (27 SEP 03) :
UUCPNET
The international store and forward network consisting of
all the world's connected Unix machines (and others running
some clone of the UUCP software). Any machine reachable
only via a bang path is on UUCPNET. See network address.
