Haven't been following this thread so far so sorry if I'm repeating anything. Officially thunderbird doesn't claim accessibility via msaa so no particular reason why it should work. What version are you using? You might get on better with the version 3 betas which are updated regularly, try it, if it doesn't work try again a couple of weeks later. Also try it with nvda as its development is more closely aligned with the mozilla suite than the big 3 screenreaders. For jaws try switching off the quick nav keys in the verbosity options to see if this prevents your problem.

For example, with this message, I typed the first A and Jaws said, "No anchors on this page", then the L produced "No lists on this page." The only cure is to restart Jaws, or, (as I've done here,) write the message in Wordpad and paste it into the message. Any ideas? Is it my particular version of Jaws? ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
