I can't make a definitive suggestion to cure your issue. It is certain.ly
not an issue that is common as I've not heard of anybody else having a
problem with Outlook Express 6 reading the incorrect subject line with Jaws
or another screen reader. That's not to say that nobody else has
encountered this, but it is rare.
First, have you tried this with another screen reader? Can you try it with
say an earlier version of Jaws, or try it with SaToGo or a demo of
Window-Eyes for example? Do you get the same behavior? If not, try
repairing or re-installing Jaws 11.
Some other possibilities to consider. These may be obvious, but...
Are you certain you are using the PC virtual cursor?
Do you have OE maximized when this behavior occurs?

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Follow up to the list on my outlook express 6 problem.
Good evening everyone:
As some of you may remember, Earlier in the week I posted a problem to the
list about how my outlook express 6 was reading the prior subject line of
the message that I had deleted when I wenttoo read the next message
that's in my in box. I called Freedomscientific this morning and
talked with a tek too ask him if there was a fix that might help too
correctthis ongoing problem. He told me too update my jaws 11, which is
the current version that I'm using from Jaws 7 point 54 too 7 point 56 I
think. After the update was successfuly downloaded, I restarted the
computer, then went back into my outlook express 6, too see if the update
that he told me too install had fixed the problem. Unfortunately, it
didn't work as I had hoped that it would. So, if there are any assistive
technology trainers out there who either might have heard, or know of a
fix for this problem, I would sure appreciate any help, suggestion, or
advice on this problem. If not, then I'll probably have to install
windows live mail, and no longer use outlook express 6 as my email
program for reading and sending email. This problem, is causing me too
accidently delete important messages, because I see the subject line of
the previous message. This is a very anoying problem that I'd like too
fix if possible. Also because I'm comfortable using the format that
this program has, I'd rather not have too swich too another program unless
I really am forced too.
