Hi Donna, I only really interact if I see a link. Otherwise, it's not really necessary. But that might be why. When I hit enter on a link without interacting, it takes me back to the top of the message, and does not open the link at all. Enter with interact doesn't work, either, so you're left with VO-Space. Hope it works out for you.
