Hello John, just so you know I am using the standard view and the reason I use
the VO J command is that when I hit enter on the message for me I find I get
extra verbiage such as it repeating things like Mac for the blind list and a
bit more before it says Text after that Voiceover will then go onto read the
message. Call me fussy but with the VO J command all it says is interact with
text father that the message gets read. So if there is any way to stop the
extra stuff with the normal enter key and have it just read the text, then I
would like to know so I can do it the enter way too. If there isn't one then
I'll just stick to the VO J command.
