Re: Gmail and JAWS

Hi Alicia, forgive the spelling of your name.  I've used gmail and it's not 
very accessible if you're not willing to fight with it a little.  I have to 
click on  basic html, which in theory should let you use the page like the old 
Internet but for me, I used the virtual cursor off, to check it, delete stuff, 
things of that nature.  If others have ha better luck, well go for it.  I do 
know it's possible to forward google to your home address for instance.  Good 
luck,
Siobhan

  Hello, Everyone:

  Does anyone know if gmail through Google is accessible with JAWS? I am 
interested in using it for school and private use, because I can access it 
anywhere, but I want it to be useable with JAWS so I can access it. I have not 
had any good luck with Yahoo Mail so decided I might try this one out. I would 
be interested in any feedback about the gmail services and the accessibility 
with JAWS.
