Hi,
A quick thought to add to my instructions for Erik on playing .wav
format Voice Mail clips that are email attachments: this probably
assumes that QuickTime is associated as the default application to
play .wav files. This will normally be the case if you have installed
Flip4Mac
<http://www.flip4mac.com/download.htm>
for QuickTime Player to handle .wav files.

OK, perhaps a better reply to Erik would have been to say that Quick
Look Attachments doesn't work as a way of playing his emailed home
phone voice message .wav attachments, but that he doesn't need to
separately save and open the files in order to listen to them. As
long as he opens the file he can listen to it. For example:
1. Navigate to the selected message in the messages table
2. VO-J to jump to the message, which is read out
3. VO-Space on the attachment; QuickTime player opens up
4. Press return; the .wav file plays in QuickTime player
5. Command-Q to quit QuickTime player; you're returned to the message
6. VO-J to jump back to the messages table
You may need to check that the QuickTime player window gets focus,
but this seems pretty robust. You can press return again if you
want to replay the message, and you can delete the message after
you've finished listening from the messages table.
Cheers,
Esther
