Actually, not exactly.
The function worked until people started complaining about the "Are you sure you want to overwrite the clipboard..." dialog that is generated by the FS Clipboard when the From: field contents was copied to the clipboard during the process. So FS used GetWindowText to save the contents of that field to a string variable instead. Evidently, that either gets too much, or not enough, data from the field, so isn't reliable as the CopyToClipboard method. So replacing the Jaws 9.0 ReplyToSender with the Jaws 8.0 version fixes the problem of reliability, but not the overwrite confirmation dialog.

Thanks,

George,

Wait a minute. Do you mean the problem is something as simple as that FS
accidentally left the script that runs this function out of subsequent
releases and updates, and that's why it doesn't work as it is supposed to? And you can fix it by doing this? If it's so simple, and so many people have
reported it, why doesn't FS just fix it?

This is a little confusing to hear.

Thanks.

Hi All:
On this list and other lists instructions were posted several months ago:
that you could copy the "replyToSender" from your JAWS 8 and post it to your JAWS 9. The script and instructions are on the "Jaws users" home page under
scripts.
HTH,

Yeah, me too. Sorry to say. It was a nice convenience while it lasted. At
least I know how to copy a sender's address from an email into the To
header
field when I begin a reply I want to be off list. But that's a lot more
trouble than the Reply Directly to Sender function was for a few months, a
couple of releases ago or so.

Sigh.

Hi,  Have you checked the Shift-Insert-R triplet to invoke the Reply To
Sender function in the newest JAWS?
I have and it still does not work for me .  Mitch
