Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] MESSAGE RULES
thanks, for some reason when I go to my message rules it takes me
straight
into the new rule page. After completing your steps I went back to
attempt
to see my message rule but when I got down to name the rule it still says
new rule 1 and nothing underneath it. For one reason or another the rule
is
not taking.
