Yes, it can be done, Brenda and Laura.  And not only on e-mail headers but even 
at prompts and selection lists in Keylist or the address bar in Keyweb.  I'm 
surprised that the commands used to repeat, spell, and repeat with punctuations 
read in these cases seem to have been overlooked or forgotten.  To PDI's 
credit, it is in the original manual and command summary, from the earliest 
Keysoft version I've run.

OK, here are the commands that you can use in such places:

Repeat the last message or prompt: REPEAT key [SPACE with R].

Repeat last prompt, spelling the default prompt: FUNCTION with L [ENTER with S].

Repeat last prompt, announcing all punctuation in default prompt: FUNCTION with 
P [ENTER with H].

So, in reference to Brenda's question, you navigate to the header containing 
the address you wish to be spelled, and then press ENTER with S.

How do these three commands differ? Let's say I go into Keyweb, and the URL 
offered is the one I've set as the home page:
www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en
If I use the Repeat command, it would just read the URL again, not reading the 
punctuations question mark and underscore if you have the default setting for 
punctuations.  If I use the Spell command, it will spell it out, saying, "g o o 
g l e" when it comes to the "Google" part of the URL, and announce all 
punctuations as well.  If I use the Repeat with Punctuations command, it would 
read it like the Repeat command but would say "underline" and "question mark" 
at the right places, something that the Repeat command doesn't do.

HTH,
Roselle
