David,
I don't understand what you're talking about. First of all, I use Jaws 6.
Sorry to have confused you. What are you talking about, opening an email
message and hearing "read only, edit?" I don't hear anything like that when
I open an email message. Also, why are you saying that you turn it off, and
yet it still speaks, and you feel better? As I said, are you aware that I'm
talking about an edit field in the spell checker?
Thanks,
Daniel
