When no options are given, outputs the status of all requests issued by the current user. Note that only one of the options -j, -m, -k,
-c, can be used with the other options. For example, the command
uustat -usteve -slimbo -y63 -v
will print the verbose status of all jobs that were issued by user steve destined for system limbo within the last 63 hours. The format of
each job status entry is:
job# user destination spool_time status_time status
where the status may be either an octal number or a verbose description. The octal code corresponds to the following description:
OCTAL STATUS
00001 Copy failed for unknown reasons.
00002 Permission to access local file is denied.
00004 Permission to access remote file is denied.
00010 Bad uucp command is generated.

00040 Cannot copy to remote directory.

00400 Cannot execute uucp.
01000 Copy succeeded.
02000 Copy finished, job deleted.
04000 Job is queued.
The format for the machine accessibility status entries is:
system status_time last_success_time status
where
system is the system in question
status_time
is the time the last status entry was made.
last_success_time
is the last time a connection was successfully made to this system. A conversation could be ended prematurely after a successful
connection.
status is a self-explanatory description of the machine status.
In the current implementation requests are not recorded in the logging files. This implies that mail and news requests are not recorded by
