	Probable, in fact, if not certain; and I think it means I'm 
stuck. 

	The ISP to which my local Alpine connects expects me to do 
webmail, which I detest and abominate -- except when (as I do very often) 
I want a quick look at a pic attached to an email, just to see whether 
it's of any interest.

	For that, *I*F* I already have the webmail open, it's a lot 
quicker. Otherwise, I'd gladly be rid of both the webmail and the ISP 
(Comcast) with it, except that it's the only broadband I can presently 
get here.
