I agree with David. Sometimes vo j doesn't work, but restarting mail or voice over, or simply trying again, works. Sometimes, you have to wait for two seconds after pressing vo j before attempting to read the message. I wonder if it's some kind of focus issue which sometimes happens. If I'm really stuck, I just press enter on the message and read it that way.
