So how to people find reading messages with Outlook and JAWS (please state which version)? these days?
I have used Outlook before and do appreciate what Peter's saying but, again, I found the reading of messages (which I did a lot of the time) pretty clumsy in those days.

I use Outlook and always have done. There's just so much available within Outlook. Calander for alerted appointments be it a birthday or doctor's appointment. When such an appointment occurs, a window will appear on your monitor and a sound of your choice will alert you to the appointment you have entered. Outlook Notes, which is just invaluable if someone calls you on the phone and you need an immediate notepad opened in front of you. Control 5 plus control N and its there. Or you can use Notes to store your guide dogs's food ordering processes or Nod32 seriel number or Misc phone number or even a URL link. Open a note, type in a few words and Control F4 the window and it is still saved! How cool is that. Contacts can be simpleor complex depending on your need. You can have birthday's, wife's name andcell number, son's name and cell, your place of work and phone number, favourite pub and pub manager, website, email address, etc. Moving Outlook PST files from one computer to another is so simple, too. It copies your email addresses, your notes, your calander, your inbox and sub folders and can be done in a snap. I think the process of copying your pst files is soeasy that you will back it up often. Message rules are simple to use, I haveAccess-uk filters to go to the Access-UK folder. SoundForge to go to the SoundForge folder, The Boys to go to my son's folder, Suzanne to go to my wife's folder. Musicians to go to the Musicians folder etc, and SPAM to gowhere its supposed to go. I very much like the control you have over Outlookand the fact that it is more secure than OE. You can also use Window Eyes 6.1 to read your emails automatically if you put Jaws in sleep mode for Outlook, saves all that say all nonsense. I think Window Eyes 6.1 hasimproved a great deal in this regard. I couldn't possibly go back to OutlookExpress.
