Hi Jane,  Again the behavior is inconsistent.  For example, with the In Box, 
I generally get notice of the number of messages being downloaded and the 
status line is correct most of the time.  Conversely the number of messages 
reported in the Bulk Mail folder is often incorrect.
From a cold start after downloading messages, JAWS will show, for example, 
that there are 40 messages when there are actually only 20 and it reads each 
message twice.  If I then close O E and open it again, it will then 
correctly show the actual 20 messages.
Like you, it does not say bottom of window.
And to be clear, these issues were never present with 7.0 and 7.1 and I have 
made no changes to my system that I am aware of over the transition. Mitch

I have not had your particular problem with e-mail in Outlook express, but
what I do note since JAWS 8.0 and 8.1 is that JAWS does not read bottom of
window at end of e-mail list. Likewise, JAWS does no longer read the number
of messages. Do you note this also?
