Well, one of the tricks I've done so that Jaws doesn't read greater signs in E-mails is this... I hit insert D. This opens up the dictionary manager. You don't need to turn on the default settings for this one if you don't want to. Next, I hit alt A, for add words. I simply type in the greater sign all by itself. Tab to replacement word and just hit the space bar. Then, tab to OK and hit enter. Then alt F4 out of it and save the changes. Now, the grater signs will still be in the E-mail, but Jaws will not read them out loud. Because when Jaws sees the greater sign, it will just skip over it. I hope this helps.
