Hello Tom: I use Outlook 2016 and do not have any problem addressing emails at all. After I installed the latest update to Jaws2018 from the FS website, it now readily reads the addressee when it autofills the field.
I use Windows 10 Fall Creator and Office 2016 is installed in my computer.

I posted the below quiry a few days ago, and have not gotten any response. I'm not sure if this is a Jaws or Microsoft issue, so thought I'd start here to see if anyone has any thoughts or fixes. This is a serious issue that significantly affects productivity when using Outlook e-mail. See below.

This morning, I just discovered a major problem with Outlook 2016 when originating an e-mail. When I start a new e-mail with control N, I can no longer type a contact address into the "to" field. When I do this, I get kicked out of my new e-mail, and get placed back into my inbox. In other words, Outlook seems to crash, and then is re-started after a few seconds. Interestingly, I can go to my contacts list, and copy and paste the e-mail address into the to field with no problem. I can also reply to e-mails with no problem. Once again, the issue occurs when originating an e-mail and trying to access someone in my contacts list. I am using Jaws 18, Outlook 2016 with Office 365, and Windows 7 here. Has anyone recently experienced this issue, and if so, have you found a fix? I am eligible to upgrade to Jaws 2018, and will do so when I get the chance. However, in the meantime, I'd like to be able to quickly originate e-mails in the usual way if at all possible.
