You want to uncheck this box so you hear:

1. Messages are in disending order, means the latest message is
showing in the end of the list. I want latest message is to appear on
the top of the list.
You should go through the menus and explore what is there. But to get
you started:
alt +v then arrow down to sort. Right arrow then down arrow to choose
Ascending or Descending.
alt + v again and arrow to sort but this time look for threaded and
click on it.
Go into view again and arrow down to threaded and right arrow then
select the option you want. I use "all".
Go back to view and arrow to layout and right arrow then select
"classic view" if not already selected.
Go to layout again then right arrow then down arrow to show message
pane and make sure it is not checked.
OK, back to view again. :) arrow to toolbars then right arrow and make
sure everything but status bar is unchecked.
Go into View again and arrow down to folders then right arrow and
select unified if you have multiple e-mail address's and want them all
to show up in one inbox.
2. 2. When I enter on message it wont open that particular email, I
want to know how to open message and how to close it because when I
press alt+f4 it closes thunderbird.
If you are in the list of messages pressing enter will open the
message in a new window. Alt + F4 will close it and return you to the
list of messages. If this is not happening then there is a problem.
After doing the steps above tab to the inbox then tab one more time
this should put you in the list of messages. Then hit enter on the
message you want to read. Let me know if this doesnt work.
3. How I can arrange messages in conversation mode ?
See answer 1.
4. 4. It would be appreciate if you could provide me keystrokes for
reply, reply all, forward messages ?
ctrl + r to reply and ctrl + L to forward. Dont know about reply
all... But you can find it with insert +F10 while on the message. This
will bring up the right click menu with several things you can do with
the message.

Hi, you can do the same thing with the full install. c:\users\user
name\app data\local\thunderbird an \app data \roaming\thunderbird. Just
copy these folders from time to time and they are your TB backup. This
has save me multiple times. :) Everything is in these two folders.
settings, messages and well everything. :) Just copy them back to the
app data folder reinstall TB and it is as if it never was uninstalled.

Hi.
Yes, you can add multiple accounts. If you have jaws 18, it'll work
fine without any extra scripts, and the fix for earlier versions of
JAWS is to enable grouping of messages by conversation. Otherwise, the
message list won't be read.
There are some handy tricks, like re-aranging the columns so the
information you want to hear about a message first is in fact read
first, etc. You can group messages by conversation and have it speak
something like this when you down arrow in the message list

Collapsed means it's a conversation you can right arrow to review the
messages in it, or if you down arrow without right arrowing you'll
skip past that whole conversation. If you pressed delete without
expanding it with right arrow it would delete the whole conversation.
The 6 there means 6 of the messages within are unread. This is an
especially efficient way of handling this sort of thing, and it's what
keeps me going back to thunderbird in spite of attempts to migrate.
Well, that and I use a portable thunderbird, downloadable from
http://portableapps.com, intended to be installed on a flash drive but
I just always run my thunderbird that way, so I can copy and paste the
thunderbird folder between my computers and need not set it up again.
Handy if I bought a new computer or just factory restored or formatted
one and am setting it all back up again.
