You mean when you up and down arrow in your message list, jaws doesn't say unread? Honestly I can't think of a thing that would cause that. It used to be if your display settings weren't correct for Jaws, or you had graphics set to none, it wouldn't say it. But with later versions of Jaws, that doesn't seem to be the case.

I would think it would be reallly annoying if OE is your primary program. -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.com JFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
