Hi, Again. I'm still using Eudora 7.x, and while it's old, it's practically bulletproof. It's been usable all the way through WE 7.5.2, and hasn't given me any trouble. One more reason to hang back and let others take the bullet (buggy software and operating systems). Oh yes, and I'm still using XP. Aside from lack of support for XP, why should one upgrade to a buggy OS?--Matthew Chao

Surely! an app or even a basic set file should be able to do that automatically, I know that in the earlier days of TB when it wasn't in use much I created a set file with WE that looked for a particular line of text when I was replying or composing a new message, when that line was matched "Browse Mode" was switched off. Nothing complex needed like that when using NVDA, it just works.
