Hi, I know this is a problem, but if you have patience with the program and
just get to know the interface a little bit, you get used to the little bugs
like folders repeating with the arrow keys. I am using jaws 9.0.515 and am
using windows live mail desktop as successfully as I was when using outlook
express preveously, and have found that the bugs only occur after starting the
program, so as it checks my email for me every minute, I leave it open at all
times, and the bugs have sort of worked themselvs out, and who knows, maybe in
the next release of jaws, they might have been fixed. Jaws 8 and windows live
mail is a big no-no though, sadly.

Morning, thought this might useful for you all using Vista and Windows live
mail desktop.
It all worked wonderfully whilst I was using the beta version of the mail
program, but once it went to the release version all of a sudden I had problems
moving between folders, which acted as if it was sticking on a folder when you
press the arrow keys.
JAWS would also repeat a few things, despite me trying JAWS 8 and 9 the probelm
was the same and I managed to rule out that it wasn't a difference with using
the JAWS beta.
Anyway, this has been excelated with Microsoft several times now and please see
their response so far below.
I'll forward the final response from them to the list for those who are
interested.
I'd be interested to know if anyone else has noticed this.
In case somebody wasn't aware of live mail which you have to download, it
allows you to use HTTP email accounts such as MSN and hotmail with it which is
why I started using it due to not being able to use Windows Mail with them.
Cheers
Peter
