Hi Jim, Sorry. The older I get, people ask me a question about one thing, and I answer a question about something else. Smile Quite some years ago, I converted all my saved email from TB to Outlook and never looked back. This is because TB became hard to use in the way you describe. Prior to that, I had the same experience with Windows Live Mail, prompting the move to TB. I had believed strongly that email software should be free, and so I put up with the difficulties. Now I choose to subscribe to Office 365, seeing now that you get what you pay for. It is both easy to write, manage and back up my email in Outlook. I am using Window-Eyes to write this very message. Since Office 365 continually updates, it is true that, now and then, Window-Eyes has difficulty tracking some controls after some updates for Outlook. However, eventually, things always seem to settle down, and, sometimes with a reinstall of a set file, Window-Eyes finds focus again and becomes usable with Outlook. Please allow me to assure you that I am easily upset by software glitches, especially with something as crucial as email. However, I believe that Outlook is a solid email client, and not just in Windows, since I use it on my Mac as well. If you need any help transitioning to it, please don't hesitate to write.
Good luck in your struggles, Rod Sent from Outlook for Windows -----Original Message----- From: Talk <talk-bounces+rod_hutton=hotmail....@lists.window-eyes.com> On Behalf Of Jim Elsner via Talk Sent: September 5, 2019 5:37 AM To: Rod Hutton via Talk <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> Cc: Jim Elsner <jimb...@frontier.com> Subject: Re: Having to turn browse mode off to type in TB Rod I realize this as I am using an older version of Fire Fox. My problem is with Thunderbird my E-mail client. I had been using an earlier version of this as well however got several notices from my mail server telling me my mail client was out of date and would be canceled. Thus this was my reason for up grading Thunderbird. Jaws 19 works with this newer version however I prefer WE. Still looking for help. Thanks.
