Listers,

Could need a bit of info here.


As you know, the latest updates to Thunderbird, have broken the 
accessibility when writing new messages, as well as replying to any 
message received. Seeing how they slowly broke down any cooperation with 
WE in Firefox, I do take the guess, this is just the beginning of the 
end for our ability to use Thunderbird along with WinEyes. I do cling to 
my WinEyes, among other things, due to the fact that it is the only 
screen reader that to a certain extent works with some websites I am 
relying on. Like for instance our local grocery store, where neither 
NVDA or Jaws will let me do my shopping properly. Only good old WinEyes.


Anyway, I want to have a backup for my mailing activity, the day when 
Mozilla finally pulls the plug for WinEyes and Thunderbird. What 
alternatives do we have, now adays? I know some of you have mentioned 
Becky. Is that the only one? Outlook, OK, but that demands me running 
Office - and does it work with all versions of office? Should I decide 
to go for things like Becky, will there be a steep learning curve? And 
will there be any particular settings or twixings to be done in my 
screen reader?


Any feedback you might have, I am open ears. If you have some idea as to 
the functionality with any of the other screen readers, along with a 
given mail client, I want to know your experiences. Would be great, 
could I find a mail client, which worked with whichever screen reader i 
happen to have up running at any time.


Oh, and two more questions:

Where to get the client you might suggest? And is it for free, Annual 
payment, or Lifetime priced?


Thanks alot, all of you.
