Yes, I see that's true. You can indeed move a message to another folder while it's open, using only the menu command, not the hotkey.As for moving a closed message from the list view (list?) of course you can do it from the context menu, or from the files menu, but, as I keep saying, fby pressing control shift v, as well. Interesting. I guess. rom ----- Original Message ----- From: G.W.

Is it really different in OE?

Same goes for other environments. So I never guessed you might be inside a message and trying to do that. Oh, well. Live and learn. It just occurred to me how you could have thought you could do this: I notice there are a lot of people who like to open messages in their Inbox, read them, and then go on to the next message in the list view from there directly by either deleting the open message or using a keyboard command of some sort. I never do this sort of thing. I open a message, and before I do anything else (apart from cycling around to another open application to do something different, I mean, without closing the email message) I hit escape to close it. So It never occurs to me that you can perform many operations on an email message from *within* the open message. Okay. Glad if it's all okay now. Subject: Re: JAWS 8 and outlook express Ah, but you need to be in the message list, not within the message. That's how I got it to work. ----- Original Message ----- From: Yardbird To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 1:55 PM Subject: Re: JAWS 8 and outlook express No Adrian, It's a standard Move keyboard command for Outlook Express and in other contexts, too, like Audible Manager. Just Control Shift V. A move files dialogue should come up. It's really, really standard. I'm just using Wind XP Home, OE 6, and Jaws 7. But unless there's an "issue," as they say, with Jaws 8 in this regard (if you're even *in* Jaws 8 when this fails to work), then something's the matter. Just as control shift b opens the Address Book, Control shift V puts up the Move dialogue so you can designate the target folder. Sorry if it isn't working. Something sounds wrong to me. ----- Original Message ----- From: Adrian Spratt To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 9:42 AM Subject: Re: JAWS 8 and outlook express That command doesn't do anything on my system.

It also happens when I skip through messages with alt-right arrow. Having identified it, however, it doesn't annoy me. What does trouble me is that JAWS 8 is slow to react when I try to save a message into another folder. In fact, it sometimes does something else, such as try to forward the message or take me into help. I'm referring to the procedure where I press alt-f, then m for move. Now that's annoying. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dana" <kitty.cat73@xxxxxxxxxxx> I found initially JAWS 8 was fine but when I use it on outlook express and I am reading a message I notice upon hitting the delete key I hear the word deleted followed by the first word of the text of the new message then the new message is read from beginning to end, however every single time I hit the delete key I hear the first word of the next message prior to having the message read. Anyone else experiencing this?
