Re: JAWS and Outlook Express

I had the same problem with Vista and Windows Live Mail Desktop.
I use JAWS8 and just switched to 9 and the way I resolved it was to make all messages plain text instead of HTML. 

Then you have to press enter in the message to get forms mode.

Moti, I could write messages fine using the beta, so long as I had compose mail set to plain text.

 Hi Dave and all,
I have downloaded and installed Jaws 9 Beta but I have a problem in Outlook Express while typing message in the edit box. I type the to: line and the Subject line fine but when I go to the edit, I can not see the Braille and Jaws doesn't speak, at all. 
 I see my text only in Jaws cursor position.
I sure switched to the previous versions of Jaws, Jaws 7 and Jaws 8, and all is right there but not in Jaws 9 Beta. I wrote about this problem to the support team of FS, but didn't get reply, yet. 
 I'm using Win XP PROFESSIONAL and Internet Explorer 7.

 Hope to find solution, soon.

Hi, I have had this problem with JAWS 8. Hitting escape and Enter again often corrects the problem as you have probably discovered but I have no clue why this happens on occasion. I have also noticed it a time or two so 
   far with JAWS 9.
   JAWS 9 also retains a particular annoyance with Outlook Express on my
machine. When I delete a message from a list of messages, it repeats the subject line but a say line will read the next and true subject message in the queue. It has been suggested that this is a problem with my MSN Hot Mail account but, again, I have no understanding of this or how to fix it 
   short of changing providers.
With JAWS 9 I particularly enjoy the new feature of clicking the left mouse key to activate the balloon notices as well as retaining format and links 
   when copying from web sites.
I would appreciate hearing if others have the Outlook Express issues I have 
   described.  Thanks, Mitch

   Hi all,
   Ever since installing the JAWS 9 beta, Outlook Express and JAWS 8
occasionally pauses for 30 seconds to a minute when replying to a message. Has anyone experienced this? This does not happen with JAWS 9 and Outlook 
   Express though, nor did this happen before installing JAWS 9. Thanks in
   advance.
