It is not that fbb is nts UN friendly. It is that you have to send it the 
proper way. With rebbs you can just send the nts as st 12345@xxbbs  In fbb 
you MUST do it the way the standard is. You must send it as 12345@flbbs I 
think it is. If it isn't put in right it won't go. This just makes your 
routing more intensive...
