Hello Ed!

 EV> The notebook isn't the MAIN PC here, I use it
 EV> occasionally. XP is a desktop, I rather use it at home
 EV> with AC Power.

But how is your internet service provided? Is it primarily a  
phone plan?


 EV> I searched today for what I need and saw that it is a USB
 EV> Bluetooth 5.0 radio.

Right. That should let your XP talk to the internet from the  
phone.


 EV> Doing Email and Texting on this phone I'm comfortable
 EV> with. BBSing takes a lot more work with the phone compared
 EV> to what I have been used to on all the computers I've used
 EV> in the past. C=64, 486, XP and Vista.

How are you "bbsing" with the phone exactly?


 EV> BOY! do I miss MultiMail DOS.

Once you can shore up the internet with your XP desktop, you  
should be able to fire up Multimail.
