Hi Guys. I think this Mac newbee may have discovered something you experienced guys might not have thought of because you experienced guys would be less likely to mess around on the keyboard in desperation. I found that, although the tab didn't work like it did before, I could go from message to message with it. Also, I found that I could set how many lines I would hear in a preview. I went to preferences, I think it was. This means that, if I wanted to, I could get a quick review of the message before pressing VO J. I was glad to discover that VO J worked and that return would also take you into the message. I discovered all this by accident in my messing around on the keyboard trying to get to where I wanted to go.
