I agree, especially for someone graduating from OE. Outlook is a little more complicated, but only a little. Keep in mind to press control-1 (on the number row)whenever you get lost. Tab or press F6 between lists of folders and messages, etc. Be sure to press enter on a folder name before tabbing into that folder; otherwise you land back in the folder you just left.
The annoyance with Outlook compared to OE is that JAWS doesn't say what number message is in focus as you go up or down a message list. there's no cure. I've learned to live with it. But Outlook is very stable, even if you save hundreds or thousands of messages. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tim Ford via Jfw Sent: Saturday, August 16, 2014 10:08 PM To: Melissa Stott; The Jaws for Windows support list. Subject: Re: windows 7 e-mail programs If you can get or already have Outlook, I would recommend that. Windows Live Mail also works, and will be similar to Outlook, but WLM is more cumbersome for some operations, especially moving/copying messages into folders.

I have been using outlook express on my windows xp. When I upgrade to windows 7 I will no longer be able to use outlook express to access my E-mail. I am asking which programs to change to that will be most user friendly with jaws that I can use with windows 7 to access my E-mail. Any suggestions will be helpful.
