Basically when uucico is going through it's handshaking to coordinate between
the different files to send the ("D.*" and "X.*" files), uucico will stop
after each file and wait for an <ACK>nowledgement from the other site.

*** TOP ***  -  role=1, setline - X
Request: icus!D.icus1eac709 --> att!D.icus1eac709 (lenny)
setline - S
wrktype - S
 wmesg 'S' D.icus1eac709 D.icus1eac709 lenny - D.icus1eac709 0666 lenny
rmesg - 'S' got SY
 PROCESS: msg - SY
SNDFILE:
-> 1683 / 1.416 = 1188.5
rmesg - 'C' got CY             
 PROCESS: msg - CY
...
 
		^^ If for some reason the remote site doesn't send back
		   anything, or gets out of sync, or there is noise on the
		   line... several (10 I think) alarm() calls will happen.
		   and eventually it will timeout with the message.
		   BAD READ (expected 'C' got FAIL)
