You did say that your e-mail is web based. have you tried reading your
e-mail with an actual e-mail client such as Eudora, or Outlook Express or
something similar?
This could go a long way to solving the problem, although I've not noticed
any real differences with Eloquence on websites. In other words, when
reading a website with a lot of text on it using Eloquence as you are, I've
not noticed the type of thing you describe. Eloquence always seems to stop
and pause in the right places, this is assuming that proper punctuation is
used. If it isn't, the results can be very interesting. With a long line of
text without any sort of punctuation to indicate a pause, Eloquence seems
to lower in pitch as it reads. Try reading your e-mail with another
program and let us know if you still receive the same results.

merged my settings from 5.1 as yet - don't know if this might be the
problem. stephen
