Although this may be contrary to what Window-Eyes says we should do, I have found that if I have Thunderbird open and do control-alt-W, Thunderbird reads as it should, number of links and such, followed by reading of email message, without usubject message and with no repeating of first line.

Regarding the repetition of lines? I fixed this somehow a long time ago but can't remember what I did. Try disabling the Thunderbird app and see if it still happens. I do remember that I went into Verbosity, Browse mode, New page information 1 and 2 and set everything other than read first 24 lines to program scope and turned it off. Control-Shift-S will speak the number of links, headings, frames, etc. I just turned them back on and didn't have the problem. But I'm now running a new much faster system. Yet that information is still voiced after the first line or two. So maybe that's why I turned it off.

I assume you meant Control-backslash to open the Window-Eyes control panel. If the Thunderbird app hasn't changed the set files are not associated. they're loaded by the app.

Hth,

Hi,
As far as your first issue, it is a known one and really nothing can be done at this time.
Not sure I follow you on your second issue.
Are you writing an email when you hit control-backspace?

Subject: how to get thunderbird to stop repeting itself with the firs tline or first few words of A message when you are reading A message

Hi every time I open A message in Thunderbird.
It will start reading and then.
It will either repete the first few words of whatever message that I am
reading.
Or the first few lines or the first line of A message that I am reading.
How do you get this to stop doing this.
Also when you have Thunderbird open and hit control back space.
It will say Thunderbird.
As the set file that is selected.
But then it will say selected non.
So how do you fix that as well or can't you fix that?
