I second that.  These third party internet/email add-ons are just a nuisance
to many VI users.  I cannot begin to recount the trouble a friend of mine
has with the BT interface, and he's not the sort of guy who can navigate
around outside of known routines and use JFW flexibly enough to right things
when they go wrong, which they seem to quite often.

  Leave it well alone!!

  I have never experienced any benefit from using it.  On the whole their
  software is quite inaccessible.

  Not sure how this can be the case when we're supposed to have a DDA in
this
  country but there it is.
