Ok, just signed into one of my BT accounts, but I forgot, mine is BT Yahoo
and that might be different as there was no upgrade button, although it is a
paid for account, not the free Yahoo. The only thing it says if that is
automatic page updates cause a problem with screen readers, you can turn
them off. There is also a link for "all new mail", which I left well alone.
But as I say, this might not be the same website, so sorry I can't help.

of your questions.

Hi list,
I know that many people on this list are with BT, so my question is, do you
use their webmail, is it the "new" version as opposed to classic, and if so,
how do you manage to navigate within folders such as inbox and spam?
I still have my own accounts set to classic mail, but it seems that some
people are now receiving an upgrade page when they log in to their mail
page, and it doesn't have the option to use classic, only an upgrade button,
and if they click that option they find that they are unable to navigate the
folders, and there seems no way of returning to the classic version.
A friend who has this issue gave me her password and asked if I could sort
it out, but I could see no way of returning to classic, I tried with JAWS
and two other screen readers, and with both IE and Firefox, JAWS kept
announcing that application mode was on, what is this mode, how does one
turn it off, and would doing this help to read the folders?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Pete H.
