Rob,

I've tried alt-down arrow to make the folder open and then right arrowing, but still no luck.

Bob's suggestion:
Have you tried choosing Move in the action box, tabbing over to the next box and using your numpad mouse to click the account. This should bring up a
treeview where yo can choose your folder.

didn't work for me either. I thought I used to have to click on the first letters of the actions such as choose account and move to folder and then click on the first letter of the folder I wanted to move mail to. I've spent hours on this and am probably doing something wrong that should be perfectly obvious. I confess to being more familiar with JAWS, but am having no luck with it either.

Do either of you or someone else have any more ideas? Any help would be really appreciated.

Margaret

Hi Margaret,

In the message filter dialog, in order to make a folder open up, so
that you can have the message forwarded to a sub-folder of that
folder, you must press Alt-DownArrow. At this point, you will hear
"pull down." If you then press RightArrow, you can navigate the
sub-folders of the selected folder and pick the one you want. This is
the only trick you will need, since everything else you said shows
you know what you're doing. Smile

Hth,

Rod

1:29 PM To: WE Subject: Thunderbird Message Filters with WE 9

Good Afternoon,

I'm running Thunderbird 31.4.0 and had message filters, i.e., message
rules, set up to move mail with the old list name to a WE folder.  I
was no longer able to create a new filter for the new list name
running a licensed copy of Window-Eyes 8.4 that I paid the full price
for and installed WE 9 and am still unable to create one with the new
WE or using the competition's screen reader.  I believe TB Enhanced
is currently running.  My efforts seem to have resulted in
accidentally changing another rule to have mail from another list
landing in my in-box.  I've been trying to use to or cc for the
criteria.  I think the problem is being able to choose the account
and the Window-Eyes folder and I keep getting the word alert without
indication of what Thunderbird doesn't like, but, previous experience
with pesky Thunderbird design leads me to believe that a folder to
move the mail to has not been selected.  I deleted the old message
rule.

I'm running 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium.  Probably my WE knowledge
is just not up to the task.  If message rules can be created with the
new WE, could someone please give me specific instructions?  I'm
quite frustrated and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
