I used it last year (and will again this year) - worked well, no problems (apart from saying that I owed some tax!). You can do a bit and save it, then do more later, then submit it when all done. And I think, although you'd need to check, that you don't have to submit it before the end of September if you do it online.
I think the snail mail password is actually a reasonable security feature for such an application.
