I'm afraid I don't know very much about it - and that because both BTX and
telex seem to dye, very few people use them any loger. > fax, e-mail aso.

No, it is no e-mail. The communication channel for btx is the telephone
line, the device you need is a mixture of telephone and computer. I don't
think, there is any conection between e-mail net and btx.
