Hi Lynne, Damion et al I used to use Thunderbird but as noted problems now with WindowEyes. I also sometimes had problems using it with my IMap server. I now am using MacMail on the Mac and this is fine, and Outlooook with WindowEyes, but the MS Word pane keeps disappearing and if I try orther views this too seems eratic. I am reluctant to use three different screenreaders for different apps, and wish I could just go back to the good old days before Window-Eyes got too big for its boots and I used Outlook Express. Ah well, I must be getting old. hBut seriously, I must admit I am doing rather more than half of my emails these days from my IPhone with a BlueTooth keyboard and have no problems reading or sending emails or attachments. Second place, as said, goes to MacMail - mhyonly problem with this is that sometimes I have problems with my network, which I know is not MacMail's problem. Dennis.
