No, it did not crash using Window-Eyes the time I had a fiddle with it.

So is there any window eyes users out there who
have given it a whirl, perhaps none of these
crashing/not readable things wouldn't occur?

Perhaps if I can get some real down time away
from the Cafe, I might give it a go.

That is one of the problems with Eudora crashing so much. See Eudora changed with every version, and the scripts didn't. They just added more and more to make the scripts work. When in fact they where bloating the scripts with useless and sometimes redundant script functions. You can not take scripts for a version made 5 years ago and say they work with the updated version. if you look at a lot of the script headers. You will find that FS hardly did anything to scripts for todays programs out side of give it a new name. for a program that costs over $1000, crappy tech support, and all of its power done by external scripting. if those scripts where actually written into the program. Then and only then would it have the power it claims to have. you might even see them fix a bug. Oops, sorry I forgot they call them bells and whistles.

I would not call mozilla's Eudora inaccessible or not speech friendly. If you want to have a serious go at it, temporarily remove your Eudora scripts/set files and try using it without. It does have pretty much standard controls from what I could tell and the jaws scripts foreudora were hindering and not helping as they are for the eudora client. i wonder if it was posible to add something to the Eudora scripts to distinguish which version of eudora is being used. I know something of that sort had been added to the Eudora scripts to distinguish between Eudora 3.x and earlier and 4.x and later versions.

I tried it too, and it's bloated, not really speech friendly, hard to use software and if that is a marriage between Eudora and Mozilla/Thunderbird, I'd say it's more of a usurpment or take over than marriage. Eudora suffers, isn't the old friend it is in 7.1.09 which, fortunately I bought, but can't use at the moment for an 10053 error when I send out mail.

Yeah, briefly last night and I wet back to the original Eudora fairly quickly. IIf you played with Penelope befoer, Eudora 8.0 has a very similar look and feel.

I had three reasons for uninstalling it mainly:

1. the Eudora scrits conflicted with it since the name of the program executable are the same as original eudora

2. Mozilla's Eudora overwrote the settings of Qualcomm Eudora in Windows replacing Qualcomm Eudora as the main mail client and i want to continue using Qualcomm Eudora as my default mailer.

3. I could not find where to enter and edit the smtp server information for my different mail accounts. Mozilla Eudora imported some settings from Outlook Express apparently but that wasn't the mail account I wanted to use with it.

Uninstall and Rollback to Qualcomm Eudora was fairly painless.

Cheers,

Doris
