They've got the multilingual settings enabled in outlook. Then, they have
their spell checker and grammar checker and language tag set to U.K.
English. Then, they set their message to html so it'd use that language
tag. When you got the message, it read it in a British accent because of
the language autodetection mentioned in the other message. In order for the
language autodetect to work, the tag has to be present. What's really fun
is when someone has their language tag set to ... say French and they write
in English, Jaws will read it to you thinking it's French and pronounce them
according to French rules and not English ones. It's kind of funny. That's
where the option to turn off language detection comes in handy.
See ya,

John,
How did this Sender get this message to read back by Jaws in a British
sounding voice?
