I sure wish I knew just what I'm doing right. I'm just afraid I'll wake
up with the same issue any day now.
Using Windows 10 and the final version of WE.

Nice try, but in Thunderbird, even when writing this reply, it does give
no result. That is, Ctrl-Insert-C, tells me:
No Cursor Found.
I can write the message, and the speech will echo my typing. If i
Backspace, I can hear one character at a time, as they are deleted. But
any use of the Arrows, or things like Ctrl-Home, Ctrl-End - yields no
speech at all. That is even if the cursor actually moves. Have tried the
Ctrl-S, for saving the message - like someone suggested. No help there
either.
Strange why some reports they have no trouble with the newest
Thunderbird. Unless it has to do with the fact that I am still running
under Win7, and likely will be for yet a while.

Another thing you can try is Control+Insert+C. This makes Window-Eyes
search for the cursor. It will usually say either "uses system cursor"
or "no cursor found."

Thanks Bob, yeah, similar issues - fortunately my Thunderbird contains
spell check (I thinkit's Thunderbird which provides the spell check, but
who knows). What stinks is, if I leave the composing window, I won't
know where I am in the e-mail. I have to assume the cursor is where I
left it.

Nick,
I am using windows 10, win-eyes 9.5.4., and WLM. The same thing has
been
happening to me. It didn't used to do this. It started happening all of
a sudden for no apparent reason.
If I bring up WLM, I can write an email and see what I am writing.
after
that, while writing the 2nd email, I can't see or hear what I am
writing.
I have to close WLM and thenn open it. Then I can see what I am
writing.
But again, only the first email. Then have to close and re-open WLM
again.
-Bob

I'm not sure just how much I've ultimately got to add here, but I must
at least say this.
My version of Thunderbird updated on me without either permission or
encouragement. Naturally I did a double-take and hoped and prayed that
my ability to edit would continue, and with my good luck or divine
intervention, it continued to function as it should.
One thing that really annoys me is that every time I go to open up the
program, it takes an eternity to load and otherwise settle down. I was
told that I should remove all add ons, but the only one I have is the
spellchecker, and removing that didn't help either, but I wasn't going
to go without that one anyway.
I said all that only to say that I haven't encountered the editing
problem at all, up to this point anyway - knock on wood.

I'm
not sure where you can get it. You would need the SET files and apps
that GW developed for it. It has its quirks, but works well for me.
You may want to work with Thunderbird and NVDA, but I have no
experience with that combination.

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.
