Forgive my ignorence but you say I can use a basic text editor. Are you referring to text documents? Would I click open with to be able to view the msg messages? I am not using the latest jaws 17 because of those problems, so far using windows 10 seems fine to me, now as for mail haven't tried it yet. Are you saying that wlm will not work properly with jaws 17 not the latest one but the previous version, sorry I don't remember the numbers.

If I decide to go with windows live mail on windows 10 and jaws 17 are you guys all sure its compatible? One of the totorials given here on this list seems to be for windows 7. Another very important question for me at least. I have a lot of email messages saved from throughout the years. Most of them I have converted to text documents but there have been some that I have not therefore they have the extention .msg if I start using windows live mail will I be able to view these emails? Will they need converting and if so how would I go about this? Would it be as simple as just changing the extention to whatever windows live mail uses? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
