Hi Larry. Thanks for your suggestions, but no luck on my end. I'm on a Windows 7 64bit system, not Windows 10, so I'm not sure what other things our computers have in common besides Office 2010.
I don't care to use the JAWS virtual riggon UI in Outlook because, in my experience, it behaves unpredictably sometimes, so I keep that turned off. But, regardless of whether I have it off or on, I still have the issue with reading my message list. My plan is to see if FS email support comes through for me, which means I'll do nothing with this for the next few days. Then, as a plan B, I'll try the JAWS v17 beta. I have two upgrades available in my SMA, so hopefully this issue does not find its way into a future JAWS release. Let's keep each other (and the list) updated as we find out more about this. -Paul > -----Original Message----- > > Hi Paul > > I regret I am not having much success with the latest JAWS16 version: > J16.0.4463enu-x64.exe > > However, I am having better success with the prior JAWS16 version: > J16.0.4350enu-x64.exe > and the latest new JAWS17 beta test version: > J17.0.806enu-x64.exe > > I am testing JAWS and Outlook 2010 on a Windows 10 Dell desktop PC and a > Windows 10 Microsoft Surface Pro 3 PC. > > The results vary depending on some of the JAWS and Outlook 2010 settings. > In case you have not yet had the occasion, maybe try experimenting with > the settings. > > 1.
