Hi Bruce, What sounds like the same problem came up on this fairly recently. The fix was to open Jaws configuration manager for the Thunderbird application, and in the Text processing options, uncheck the Detect language check box. David. original message: A friend of mine is working with the JAWS demo. He is finding that, in Thunderbird, his e-mail program of choice, whenever he encounters a blank line, JAWS is telling him font information. He finds this very annoying, quite understandably. Short of the unhelpful "get a different e-mail client", is there anything anyone can suggest that my friend can do?
