Hi,
The message below was sent to the list a few days ago but no replies
were received from anyone using 7.1, WXP with Thunderbird. No replies
were received from GWMicro either so am sending an edited version again.
edited message:
I am experiencing some 7.1 stability problems and am wondering if anyone
else is having the same or similar problems.
Soon after installing the 7.1 update the following was noticed when
using the latest version of Thunderbird.
When only a few messages are displayed, pressing the up or down arrow
keys to hear the first or last message header frequently causes WE to
loose the plot. Upon pressing enter to open the message, WE will read
the subject and say Thunderbird but nothing more. The text is on the
screen because it can be read with mouse keys but is not spoken
automatically or with the arrow keys. While WE is in this state many
areas do not speak correctly. e.g. New message editbox, list of
folders.
The fault appears to be triggered by pressing the arrow keys when
determining whether the message under the cursor is really the first,
last or the only message in the list. Having the scripts on or off
makes no difference.
In WE 7.01, The pressing of the appropriate arrow key resulted in
silence when the extremities were reached. This was a slight irritation
but nothing like the current problem.
Upon closing Thunderbird after the above problem has occurred, the
Desktop icons will not speak and WE needs to be unloaded and re-loaded
before WE will function normally again. If an application other than
Thunderbird is used, 7.1 seems to work as it should but more testing is
required.
Anyone else experiencing this problem with 7.1 and Thunderbird under
WXPH?
Using:
WXPH SP3, Triple Talk USB, also tried Dectalk for WE, Asrock motherboard
VGA drivers uptodate, latest Thunderbird maxed.
Cheers
Neville.

I use Thunderbird. I have XP and W.E. 7.1. I am experiencingjust one
problem. When I type in partof an address, for a message, I get one
name popping up and can't arrow down to another. For example if I type
in "Joe", the first joe comes up, but I can't arrow to another "Joe" in
my address book. I have to open the address book, go to the name and
hit control - m. Not a big deal, but different than before.
