[Blind-Computing] Is there a shortcut?

2011-03-30 Thread Cliff Smales
I recently received an e-mail that had about 25 sent to sitations, before I got to the actual message. Is there a shortcut around this type of situation? Even better: Is there a way to avoid it all together. I'm looking for a keyboard command, or whatever will do it. CliffSmales For answers

Hi Cliff, If you want to avoid this annoyance,tell the folks that send them to you, not to! I find forwarded messages quite annoying, not to mention, that I don't care to have my e-mail address shared with people I don't know. Just my opinion. Rick Justice - Original Message - From:

Rick has the best solution either let folks know you don't do forwards, or if you see the FWD bit, hit DEL key. If you want to read it I've found pressing CTRL End and maybe Page Up gets you somewhere in the message usually. A class on netiquette on removing headers ought be taught :).

Hi Cliff; In Outlook Express, what you can do is press Insert / Jaws key + Enter. This keystroke moves you to the next block of text which is not a link. Hope this helps. Take care. Mike - Original Message - From: Cliff Smales To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent:

These roll up keyboards are frequently referred to as flexi-keyboards. I've seen them at local Staples stores, but you can also find them all over the internet. Some of them do not provide tactile feedback, while others have springs inside the rubber sealed keys so that you can feel the keys
