Hi Bret,

I just tried it again on an e-mail message which had an RTF attachment. I pressed command-Y and the attachment started to read. I don't know what kind of attachment you are trying to read, however, command-Y works fine with RTF.

Command Y takes me to the quick look without selecting the button, but when I interact with the text box, VoiceOver still acts as though there is no text. I've tried attachments in .rtf and .doc.

Hello,

Is there a way to read attachments in Mail without opening them with an application, using the quick look button? When I use quick look, I interact with the area that says text, but VoiceOver doesn't read anything. If I open the attachment with an application, it can be read. The quick look just seems like an easy way to go, like viewing an attachment in gmail online using the view as html option.

Thanks,

Brett
