1. Create two user accounts--one for you one for your wife. That way each of you can have your own settings. You could also add separate identities in your email progrram instead.

2. In Windows Live Mail, control-shift-c brings up your contacts, as does shift-tab from the To field in a new message.

Hint: Not sure how your contacts appear. When I migrated contacts for clients over to Win 7, they appear by email address. You can hit the Edit link on each one and add their names. That might be easier for you to select them.

3. If you try typing an email address in Windows LiveMail, you need to enter enough of the address for the computer to eliminate all other possibilities. At this time, the possible choices show on-screen, but they aren't easily chosen using Jaws or Window-Eyes.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] thunderbird vs. windows live mail


This is not going well. My new win 7 machine and email. First what program is more jaws friendly to use? I will need both on the computer. One for me and the other for my wife. I opened a message in thunderbird and can not close it and finding addresses in live mail are quite a choir. By having the two accounts in windows live all of the settings that I want also apply to my wife such as signature. It only took me about 20 minutes to put this email together, trying to get the correct address.
