Hi Iona, When you are in the message content table, interact with it and find the message you want to send a private reply to. Then, you will find 2 areas: the message header, and the text of the message. Put your vo cursor on the header area and interact. Now, you are inside a few lines of text, the first of which is probably the sender of the message that you are goig to reply to. Watch out for this oddity though, because it is not enough to have interacted with the header and putting the vo cursor on the sender. Most of the time, you need to interact again, namely with the text itself. Then, you can move your vo cursor back and forth, and hit vo shift m for the context menu. It takes a little bit of poking around with the vo cursor until you have it on the sender, and only then will the context menu pop up. I have been fighting with this same small issue until I found a note on this very list, telling me how to solve that. So, if your vo shift m menu doesn't come up, you probably forgot to interact with the text itxelf inside the message header, or you didn't have the vo cursor positioned exactly on the sender's name.
Hope this helps. Paul.
