You have to turn off quick navigation keys (in jaws).
I would recommend making the change in the personalized web settings dialog
so it applies only to the GMail site.
Press insert shift V.
Arrow down to quick navigation keys and press the space bar until it says
off.

Hi Debbie and Patricia,
Thanks. I did read the shortcut keys, but I'm afraid I can't get them
to actually work. Debbie, have you managed to use these shortcut keys
with Jaws running? I'm thinking that maybe some of the keystrokes
conflict with Jaws and that's why they don't do what they are supposed
to?
As for using the Pop3 feature, one of the reasons I wanted to use
GMail is because of the 2 GB storage space allowed. I'd prefer to
leave my e-maiol messages on the Google server.
Thanks again,
Russell
