here's the approach I've taken with a few client's regarding the outlook email notification.
Try the following: Select "File" then "Manage Rules & Alerts" button Create a new rule Start from a blank rule and select "Apply rule on messages I receive" Click "Next" On the next screen where it asks which conditions you want to check, click "Next" again and you will be asked if you want the rule to be applied to every message you receive. Click "Yes" Select checkbox "Play a sound" In the window just below where it says "Step 2" click on the "Play a sound" link and browse to sound file you want to play Click on the "Open" button Your selected sound should then appear in the "Step 2" window Click "Next" Click "Next" again (unless you want any exceptions) Specify a name for your new rule and then click "Finish" That's it! Let me know if it works. I don't expect you to perform these steps, however, just giving you a little thought. Statistics are like a bikini. What they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of HICKS, Steven (ROYAL CORNWALL HOSPITALS NHS TRUST) Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2018 2:02 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2016 Second question, check the balance on your sound card, go to control panel, sound and look in there. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of Miriam Vieni Sent: 26 April 2018 17:54 To: jaws users list <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Subject: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2016 My first question: The sound to alert one that a new email has arrived is checked, according to my sighted daughter. But it has apparently gotten much softer. I know I'm losing my hearing. However, I don't think I've lost a huge amount within the past few days. How do I get the volume up? Second: A few minutes ago, I lost the volume in my right hand speaker. Is there a way to turn it on? Third Question: If an email is sent from an email list which is set up so that when one responds, the response goes to the original sender of the email and not to the entire list, how can I add the list email address to contacts?
