Re: Outlook express and JFW
Beth - It's not necessarily true that you will be taken to the next message immediately following a deletion of the current message. In some versions of Outlook, at least, this was configurable and you had the choice of being advanced to the next message, being taken to the previous message, or being returned to the Inbox list. -- Walt Smith - Raleigh, NC [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Visit the jfw ml web page: http://jfw.cjb.net
Re: Outlook express and JFW
Hi, Mike. Sorry if someone has already answered this. If you open a message, read it, then press control-d. The next message will automatically be displayed as long as you don't close it, otherwise you'll be brought back to the list of message titles. =Beth= =Beth Hatch-Alleyne= Justice Means Not Just Us.

Re: Outlook express and jfw
The quickest way I can see is to open the Outlook Express scripts with Insert+0. Press F2 repeatedly till you get to the SayHighlightedText function. Then look downward through the function for the line Say(msg_UnreadMessage, ot_message); Place a semicolon at the start of that line to prevent the statement from executing. I think that's all you should need to prevent the message from being spoken as you cursor through your InBox. I hope this works for you. I'm basing this on the Outlook Express scripts that came with the latest patch to JFW 3.3.

Re: Outlook express and JFW
Hello, OE4 does just the opposite for me: I'm automatically put at the opt message. When I exit from each body of a message, when I get back to the message list biew, I hit the Del key & the next message below is spoken & I know from experience that the previous one is deleted even though it doesn't tell me so. Great mystery.

Yes, hit the home key before you start reading. For some unexplicable reason, the last message is always selected when you enter a mailbox in Outlook Express.

Re: Outlook express and JFW
That should happen automatically. YOu shouldn't have to do anything in particular. Areyou using Outlook Express 5.0? - Visit the jfw ml web page: http://jfw.cjb.net
Re: Outlook express and JFW
Why hide the preview pane? I tried it, but when pressing enter to read the message, I note that the speech often skips around, rereads lines and acts strange on two different synthes I read all my messages inthe preview pain, pressing control D after I have read it, JFW begins reading the next message in a straight-forward manner, and pressing spacebar brings up the next screen. Only time I really press enter in a message in the list is if I get some sort of indication there is an attachment, and, if someone sends a blank message with an attachment, I never check the attachment, they have to at leas put something in the message. Your milage may vary, but thisworks well for me, makes reading messages faster since I don't have to refresh the screen as often, either with the insert-escape combo or the plain F5. .

Re: Outlook express and JFW
Hi Mike, I use IE 4 & it does that very nicely. It has always done that & is designed to do so. I am not aware of any special setting I engaged for it. Sorry I have no suggestions.

Re: Outlook express and JFW
I don't know of any specific setting that causes the next message to appear when you delete the previous one. Just curious: Are you reading messages by pressing to open them? If not, I would recommend using that approach. I ask because you could be tabbing over into the preview pane, conceivably. The HJ folks recommend hiding the preview pane and reading messages by pressing on the highlighted message in the message list. To hide the preview pane, open the "View" pull-down menu, cursor down to "Layout", and press . Then tab through the Layout dialog box and make sure "Show preview Pane" is not checked. One other thing, I find that a new message only appears if I press Control-D on a message and there is another message listed after the one I'm deleting in the message list. If I'm deleting the last message in the list, then I wind up back in my inbox. I hope this helps.

Re: Outlook express and JFW
I also have a question on outlook express. In 3.2 It didn't say message deleted. Is there a way to do this? - Visit the jfw ml web page: http://jfw.cjb.net

Wile in the message press control+d. You should then hear the next message.

Re: Outlook express and JFW
I don't read every message in my mailbox so I haven't used this often enough to stress test it, but I did discover that if you're in the preview pane when you delete a message, JFW will automatically read the next message. Reading in the preview area does not mark a message as Read, but if you're deleting it anyway it hardly matters. Or you can have everything automatically marked Read when it is displayed. To make the preview area as large as possible I dragged the split line up so that only one message at a time appears in the message headers list.
