Andy, and anyone interested, I've found the following with Window-Eyes,
which may help with other screen readers too if they do not have a built-in
script or whatever to do this.

Using Outlook 2000, With the Access UK Freelists list I find that going to
the top left and finding the second occurance of left bracket places the
mouse pointer on the original sender's address.  Doing a double left click
brings up the said address in a funny little dialogue from which I can copy
that address.

The same sort of thing I am sure is doable in earlier versions of JFW but I
know nothing of the mysteries of the JAWS cursor or whatever one would use.

I seem to recall that when I used Outlook Express I was able to set up a
hotkey with Window-Eyes to accomplish something like this, but I don't
recall much about how I did it now.

I've a sneaky feeling that maybe an easier way of doing what I've described
may be possible, and, if I'm right, someone is sure to come along and reveal
it.

Hi Ray.

Yes, I've been following the same thread on the BCT list - subscribed on
Wednesday, but I thought that there was a keystroke to achieve this in
version 6.0.  I must have been wrong.  Anyway, you said Insert, Shift and R
????  Who made up these ridiculous keystrokes anyway???.  I understand what
you mean about going into the  properties part of things.  Is that where you
Shift Tab all the way back to sender, copy the name and then paste it into a
blank message, followed by some nifty editing???  What a pain eh, but if
that is what is needed, then I suppose I'll have to do it.  Don't fancy
upgrading to 7 just for that eh?

Best wishes.

Andy.
