  Oh cool. Does it work with pop/imap accounts? I have a Gmail account which 
supports both. Thanks once again for sharing.

        Windows mail is basically just a vista version of OE, while windows 
live mail is a completely new email client from microsoft which can integrate 
itself in to windows live messenger and other such services from microsoft. 
Just like OE though once you get used to its slightly different user interface.

    Hi, what's the difference between Windows Mail and Windows Live 
Mail/Desktop? Sorry for the ignorance. Thanks.

      Hi, I know this is a problem, but if you have patience with the program 
and just get to know the interface a little bit, you get used to the little 
bugs like folders repeating with the arrow keys. I am using jaws 9.0.515 and am 
using windows live mail desktop as successfully as I was when using outlook 
express preveously, and have found that the bugs only occur after starting the 
program, so as it checks my email for me every minute, I leave it open at all 
times, and the bugs have sort of worked themselvs out, and who knows, maybe in 
the next release of jaws, they might have been fixed. Jaws 8 and windows live 
mail is a big no-no though, sadly.

      Morning, thought this might useful for you all using Vista and Windows 
live mail desktop.

      It all worked wonderfully whilst I was using the beta version of the mail 
program, but once it went to the release version all of a sudden I had problems 
moving between folders, which acted as if it was sticking on a folder when you 
press the arrow keys.

      JAWS would also repeat a few things, despite me trying JAWS 8 and 9 the 
probelm was the same and I managed to rule out that it wasn't a difference with 
using the JAWS beta.

      Anyway, this has been excelated with Microsoft several times now and 
please see their response so far below.

      I'll forward the final response from them to the list for those who are 
interested.

      I'd be interested to know if anyone else has noticed this.

      In case somebody wasn't aware of live mail which you have to download, it 
allows you to use HTTP email accounts such as MSN and hotmail with it which is 
why I started using it due to not being able to use Windows Mail with them.

      Cheers

      Peter
