Hi Anne,
The Braille behaviour depends on which Braille you want to use.
I think for things like email addresses and user names you need
computer Braille.
Now in American Braille dots 4 and 6 are "dot" but in UK Braille
that is "percent".
There is also the complication of 6 or 8 dots.
When you talk about numbers being lowercase, did you mean lower
letters, that sounds like you are expecting American Braille.
So you probably need to set your keyboard appropriately, under
the options menu.
I can understand your confusion.
Although I have been a Braillist for over 40 years, I use UK
Braille, and can hardly read American computer Braille if
punctuation or numbers are involved.
Perhaps that's just me.
Regards,
Steve.

Subject: [Braillenote] Could Someone Please Help?
Hi All
I am very grateful with the help I have already received with
regards to
setting up email on the mPower. However, I do still have quite a
lot of
questions.
I would like to go the "Wireless" route for sending and receiving
emails. I
wonder if anyone knows the exact Wireless card I need to do this?
Are there
a few different cards that definitely works with the mPower or is
there just
one specific card? Can you get the Wireless cards anywhere or
does it have
to be from HW?
I tried to set up my email account but think I have messed it up
and there
is no option to remove it. In my email address I was using dots 4
and 6 for
the dot but it was telling me those dots are percent. Also, when
I did the
At sign, Space with U followed by key 4, it doesn't say AT. Since
I have
messed it all up completely, could anyone give me some advice on
how to
remove these email settings? Even if I was able to connect to the
Internet,
it wouldn't work because the details are incorrect. If there are
numbers in
my email address, I'm assuming I just do them lowercase and the
same in the
Password field?
I apologise for all the questions, it just seems so complicated
but I'm sure
that when it's all set up properly, I will wonder what all the
hassel was
for?
Hope someone can help me soon.
Thanks
Anne
