Hello folks, this remedy has already been put to Dorothy and nothing
happened. This thread is filling up my mail box and I suggest it should be
dropped and all future messages sent privately to Dorothy.
Comments please, do you agree.

Dorothy, please try and remember professionals or users on this list are under no legal or otherwise obligation to read/reply to your posts. Or those of anyone else.
As previously mentioned we are trying to understand your frustrations, we really are.
But one point to remember is that if a solution is not found it is unfair to
dash the reputation of a tech support personell because they have not got a
solution for a bug or problem in the product that they themselves not being
on the development team have absolutely no control over. nor is it their
blame if you were badly advised by an assessement team.
All members on this list as far as I am aware are still here through voluntary means. Even those that work for Jaws retailers or are on development panels such as Alpha and Beta version testers.
A bit of curtisy can go along long way.
This all said it may help us further if we know more about the computer setup.
You can easily find this out by doing the following,
1. Click on this link.
http://www.belarc.com/Programs/advisor.exe
This will download the program called belarc Adviser that will very quickly
examine your system and show the hardware and software you have installed.
2. Go to where you downloaded the program and press return on it.
3. A confirmation security window will appear asking you if your sure you want to run this program, tab to and press the spacebar on run.
4. The installation wizard will begin press spacebar on the install button.
5. The next screen is a licence agreement that you must agree to to proceed
with the programs installation. If you do press space on the I agree
button.
6. The program will install once it does an internet explorer window will appear showing all sorts of details about your computers setup. Press the following key strokes in this window
ctrl A
then ctrl C
Finally ctrl f4 to close this window out.
7. Open up a new email message and Put something appropriate in the subject
field such as,
Dorothy's Hardware and Software profile
8. Navigate to the message body and press,
ctrl v.
9 Send your email.
We can then see what setup your system is and this may help one of us or one
of the tech support guys from one of the retailers to establish if there
maybe a fix or something at least worth trying, say a driver up date for the
graphics card.
Who knows, it's wortha try.

Dorothy,
Clearly this is getting us nowhere. This thread has turned into a confusion which is trying both your patience and ours. So let's start again.
The problem is that Jaws has difficulty interacting with Outlook and Outlook Express, when the colour scheme is set to white on black. Other people, including myself, have verified this.
What are the exact symptoms that you are getting? Is text repeated? Is navigating around the body of an email difficult, or perhaps general navigation within the application? Are menus behaving as expected, or are they problematic too?
The next question is what has been done so far? Dorothy, you forwarded an email suggesting that the custom highlights be changed. Have you tried to do this? Did it improve things in any way?
What other measures have you tried? It is almost impossible to suggest solutions to a problem, without knowing the full story.
What graphics card are you using in your computer? I don't think
this is part of the problem, as several people have experienced similar
problems, all with different hardware, but until we know we can't be sure.
What is your Jaws verbosity set to? What windows display settings are you using, for example resolution, colour depth etc? What fonts does Outlook Express use? Do you read and compose emails in HTML or Plain Text mode?
Have you tried a slightly different combination to white on black? Does white on dark grey affect the way Jaws behaves? If so how?
It may be that we can't solve this problem and that Jaws simply cannot cope with this particular setup, in which case you may have to consider a compromise.
In the meantime, let's leave off the quotations, cursing professionally trained people, wasting time in airing grievances against people both on and off this list and see if we can unravel the problem in sensible fashion.
Tink.

Do not think I am being antagonistic . I come to bring information and
truth and if we are in the mood for quotes I have at time sat and wept
and
cried unto the Lord My God MyGod why hst thou hast forsakenme and almost
gone to the nearest lake taking self and computer. If I picked self up and
fought back then it was the only way out. If I got the Directors in
America
to take it was by recording the whole sorry tale not a no audio tape and
sending it by reg. post. I alsm had though a little trump card up my
sleeve which I will keep tomyself and a bit of arm twisting is what it
took to get the response. I am getting it out today and Darren if you
want
to kick me of the list then say so loud and clear and show your
credentials
please Ok The thing is sometimes you haveno alternative but to fight
back
or go under and somehow you find the strength not usre how.. Comes the
moment comes the man or the woman Ok Dorothy
