Mail error under UUCP

I am using a TI BusinessPro (286) running Xenix 2.2 equipped with a v22
modem (1200baud).

I have setup the uucp subsystem and it seems to be operating almost faultlessly
except for one small and annoying bug.  Whenever I am sent mail from another
system it arrives here on gremlin (my machinename) and disappears into a black
hole never to resurface. Attached is a copy of the LOGFILE and clearly it is a
permission problem but, who for? I can successfully send mail to merlin (the 
other machine in this example) but theirs is lost. I tried -x9 on uucico but
as far as I can understand the output it gives no more information than the
LOGFILE.

Any and all advice appreciated.

LOGFILE

root merlin (3/9-9:56) SUCCEEDED (call to merlin)
root merlin (3/9-9:57) OK (startup)
root merlin (3/9-9:57) REQUESTED (S D.gremlinB0135 D.gremlinB0135 jordan - )

My employers don't have opinions in these matters 'cos they don't know what
