Hi Ishe and Everyone. So Ishe, how do I get sound produced when I get emails if I'm using Google Talk? I get a sound if someone wants to chat. I use the client for work now with some scripts I found on the web for Jaws. I don't sign into the email chat because it confuses the client and I get a lot of garbage in messages. I have Jaws 10, and can't seem to use the email version of chat any more, or I can't figure out how to anyway. For a while the email version was all I could use but then they changed it. Thanks for any help you can give. Joyce Espy
