Hi Andy,
To change it to read the whole message, if you want to, instead of 24 lines,
do the following:-
1. Go into Outlook or Outlook Express, or whatever Email program you are
using.
2. Press Insert-V for Verbosity. Note, there is no need to enter the
Window-Eyes control panel for the verbosity options.
3. Arrow down to Browse Mode.
4. Tab once to Elements.
5. Press N for New Page.
6. Now tab several times, until you hear "Read first 24 lines, radio button
checked". At this point, arrow down once to "Read Entire Page Radio Button
Checked". Now tab to OK and press Enter.
7. Finally, save the set file, Alt-F, S for Save, S for Set file, and
you're done.
Now, whenever you open a message, the entire message will be read.
Personally, I prefer HTML messages, because you can use web style navigation
to get round messages. For example, if they have a lot of links at the top,
you can press D for Different Control, and you will zip straight past all
those links, and straight to the text.
I hope this helps.
All the best

Subject: [access-uk] Messages in HTML Format
Hi all.
I've just moved from JAWS to WindowEyes. WindowEyes is currently bing
shipped with a default of reading the first 24 lines of an Outlook Express
message. I have been advised that I can change this, but may need to change
from Plain Text to HTML. Am I not correct in thinking that many people
experience difficulties reading messages in HTML, and that messages appear
as black text on black backgrounds? To complicate matters further, as I
usually do, I have my Media Centre OS set to High Contrast number 2. I'd
write to George about this but have not yet copied his address over from my
old computer to my new computer. I'd like to read messages to end of page,
but if this means that many people are going to experience difficulty
reading my messages, then, I could live with the 24 lines.
Any advise would be very welcomed.
Best wishes.
Andy.
