Hi Yardbird,

Control D is just my prefered hotkey, it makes no difference if you press 
that, or delete key; the result is the same. Sorry, I reread my last post, 
what I meant to say is that when I finish reading the message I first hit 
control key to silence Jaws. I then wait a few seconds before hitting 
control D, this stops jaws from reading the first word in the next message. 
If you hit either control D, or delete key when Jaws is still reading, the 
next message opens, and as Dana accurately says, the first word is spoken 
before the message is read.

Ordinarily, I just press the Delete key to delete an OE message.  I've never 
understood why OE even offers control D for the purpose.  But in this 
scenario, deleting a message while you're inside it in order to proceed to 
the next message in the list view, does it make a difference in the way the 
process behaves whether you press Delete or use Control D?  I don't have 
Jaws 8 yet, so I don't have a clear idea of this problem.  What is your main 
point here-- that you wait a couple of seconds after opening the message 
before you delete it, rather than rush to delete it as soon as you hear the 
first few words?  Or that you use Control D instead of the Delete key?

I hope my questions are clear.  thanks.

Hi,

To be honest I never gave this issue much thought. When I finish reading a
message, I wait about 2 seconds, and press control D from inside a message.
This is how I get around hearing the first word when I hit this hotkey.

I am. 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.

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? Dana
