Hi Trace, I had a go using Thunderbird and it proved to be less than user friendly. I tried scripts that were meant to improve things but the net result was a laptop that would not really work.


It could of been me but as my wife is sighted and uses it with no problems, she is a fan of Thunderbird it appears that the screen reading poses problems which are still to be fully resolved. Like you I miss OE. Regards Clive.

    Hi guys, Trying to make Thunderbird a little more accessible to
    Jaws. I'm running windows7 and Jaws12.

    This Thunderbird email client does not seem to be very accessible
    to screen readers at all.

    Is there any steps I can take to make it so?.

    Any help in this matter, would be appreciated indeed,

    Billy
