Hi,
On windows 7 you are unless you go through many steps to keep live running forced to using Windows Live Mail 15 now with nice or not so nice Ribbon!
I had Live Mail setup with gmail using imap, with rather many mails on my gmail account and it just did not work at all. For 10 minutes jaws would not read anything constantly losing focus switching to other folders did not work, just to tell about the worst anoyances. If you want to use live mail go for pop3 not imap!
I will check if the RC candidate maybe has made things better, but it is in my view with full Thunderbird support a waste of time. 

After about 1 hour With Thunderbird on Windows 7 things just works.
Trash Live Mail go for  Thunderbird.
MS in practice has stopped serious development of a desktop mail client, for sure things will only get even worse.
Thunderbird must be configurated to stop it from using a start page, and viewing mails in tabs seems not to be a good idea. FS ought to include a help topic for Thunderbird currently there is no help topic if you press jawsKey+f1 twice.

Sorry, no I dont and to be honest I am fed up with messing around with email programs.
Ideally I would like to use Microsoft Outlook, which I believe is FS`s main concern but since leaving work I am coping without Microsoft Office and dont really feel need the expense of the program. 

I will be trying Live Mail again soon.
Thought I would just mention about Live Messninger as well. It was just not working nicely for me at all but a few weeks ago there was a Microsoft Windows Update to Live Essentials 2011 and this has really improved messinger for me.
Do you know what really annoys me with all this and that is about ten years a go there was a program call Windows Messinger and it worked just perfectly, progress I guess. 

Dont get me wrong I love Jaws.

regards

Graham

I also would like to know how thunderbird works with this latest version.
Well, you could always try it again and let us know. *grin* That is, if you still have Thunderbird installed.
