Hi Phil and all,
I looked in the JAWS Help topic for Outlook and didn't find many suggested
settings - looked in the Helpful Hints section; only suggested settings I
found relating to reading messages were turning the Preview Pane and Auto
Preview off, both of which I've done. These settings were actually
mentioned under the Tasks section - other sections related to Calendar,
Notes etc and as far as I can tell are not relevant to using the inbox or
other mail folders. Unless I'm missing something?
And I found I had got the preview pane on, but switching it off has made no
difference to my problem.
Has anyone got any other ideas?
It's driving me balmy - Ihave to press ins escape every time after I've
pressed delete to hear what the next conversation is.
Catherine
