For the last three years or so that I can recall, I've seen this 'message' 
thing appear in messages on another list in freelists.  Several on that other 
list are or appear to be using Microsoft Outlook as their email client.  It 
doesn't happen on all messages submitted to freelists.  I've given either/or as 
the main possibility.

  You know, I just don't get where you're coming from.  Do I have both on my 
machine?  Sure, I do.  But I'm using OE, by choice.  Is that what you're 
saying?  It was meant to be a cute way to suggest that I oughta "step up" to 
Outlook?  Something like that?  And I missed the whole thing?

  My main point here, and forgive me for making it, is that you can have both 
Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express  - two different but related 
programs - on the same machine.  Microsoft Outlook is a more full-featured 
'version' or program than Microsoft Outlook Express.  I have both programs on 
the same machine; both can interact with emails (and newsgroups, if desired); 
and Microsoft Outlook likes to think it's in charge: and I didn't originate 
this thread.  I submit that Microsoft Outlook's presence/interaction 
contributes to the 'message' word that you have been seeing at the front of 
some messages.  End of explanation attempt.

    I use Microsoft Outlook express.  You understand that both it and Outlook 
are Microsoft products, don't you?  Anyway, I don't get what you're trying to 
say.  Let's just let it go, please.

    Hi Yardbird,
    Do you also have Microsoft Outlook on your computer?  If you don't, you may 
not get the message word in front of your own messages.  Microsoft Outlook is 
begging or waiting for the chance to beg to be one's email client!

      This 'message' business has been going on with earlier versions of JAWS 
in use as well, maybe even as far back as JAWS5, possibly before.  It could be 
a freelists html-to-text conversion thing, as well.  For now, I don't think it 
a JAWS/HTML issue; though possibly the presence [and non-convergence with OE 
when it is used] of Outlook and its html has a role in it.  Heck, it's almost 
the same as Outlook Express putting "Original Message" before the message 
you're replying to.  Anyway, everybody sure gets the 'message'!

        I use HTML for my messages in OE.  I believe and can't be certain 
though 
        that it has something to do with JAWS and the way its now handleing 
HTML 
        code.  At the top of HTML pages you will see JAWS read the title that 
is 
        coded into the HTML page.  I suspect that message is the title of OE's 
HTML 
        coded messages.  But it's really just a guess at this point.

        Rick,

        First of all, you said it!  Narrator is no fun to use, at least for me.
        It's really horrible to mess with.  I don't understand half of what it 
says,
        and I don't know the basic commands for navigating or doing stuff.  So 
let's
        go, FS, and fix this bug!

        Also, Rick, may as well ask:  That word "message" is at the top of 
*your*
        every post.  So, then, can you account for its presence?  Do you have
        something in your email program that heads every one of your outgoing
        messages with the word "Message," for some reason?

        Thanks.

        MessageAlex,

        I hope FS is able to solve this problem.  It's not always convenient to 
use
        narrator instead of JAWS.

            Well my apologies then, it must be something to do with the way 
JAWS is
        handleing the keyboard now.  Very puzzleing but if narater worked then 
it's
        definately a JAWS issue.

              Rick, You are indeed quite correct, doing it with narrator worked 
a
        treat, and I now have the shortcut key I wanted all along ctrl+shift+j.
              I'll send freedom Scientific a message about it.

              Alex,

              Try unloading JAWS 8 with Insert + F4 and using narrator with 
Windows
        key + U  and see if you can change the properties successfully.  If you 
can
        then JAWS has something to do with it.  IF not then its something else.

                  Rick, Have you been following this thread.  I'm sick and 
tired of
        the number of times I've had to explain that I've checked all the 
desktop
        icons to make sure nothing has the keystroke assigned to it.  I've also 
used
        shortcut detective from the jfwlite website to determine that there is 
no
        shortcut on my system that has the ctrl+shift+j keystroke assigned to 
it.
                  Cheers.

                  I disagree,  JAWS has absolutely nothing to do with 
properties on
        a desktop icon.  That is either a MS issue or someone hasn't cleared the
        contro+Alt+j shortcut from another icon on the desktop.

                  We can't blame every single issue to JAWS.

                    Rich, I'm coming to the conclusion as others already have 
that
        it must be a jaws problem.
