That's what I do and the same results apply. I like Window-Eyes for what it does but admit to not using it full time like I was hoping to.

Thunderbird and WE is to stop using WE when using Thunderbird an use the NVDA

                Hi folks
Thanks to everyone's suggestions.  It looks like I'm stuck with Thunderbird 
3.1.1 for now.  I uninstalled Thunderbird 8.0, downgraded to TB 3.1.1 and can 
now reply to messages.  I've
I'm not using any odd keystrokes at all, I initially used the control shift r 
keystroke which replies to everyone, but remembered later that control plus r 
replies to the sender.  When using thunderbird 8.0, I'm unable to shift tab to 
the subject field and the to fields of my message, and when I type, window-eyes 
says, not a valid key press, or other messages, as if I was on a web page.  It 
seems to work with tb 3.1.1 however, which stumps me a lot.  I appreciate 
everyone's atempts to help, but it looks as if I'm stuck with TB 3 for a while. 
I don't mind it actually, but it's that thing where you say, it worked 
yesterday, so why doesn't it work today?   Also with tb 3 as I mentioned, after 
i type a few words, window-eyes repeats back what i've typed. If I upgrade to 
TB 8.0 again, i won't be able to reply to a message like I said before.
Thanks guys.
