This is interesting. Some how the install of I e9 makes jaws not automatically read opened wlm messages. As soon as I installed I e9 when I open an email maybe the first one or two will automatically read. From then on when I open a message I must use any of the reading keys to start the reading of the mail. To prove that it is I e9 I just removed it and now jaws reads the wlm messages.
