1.  Pressing the DELETE key on a message in the message list does not
behave as it did in JFW 3.30 -- it misbehaves.  In JFW 3.31 RC, the
phrase "Message Deleted" is spoken when the DELETE key is pressed.
this is annoying and time-consuming.  In JFW 3.30, this phrase was not
spoken when the DELETE key was pressed.  I attempted to modify the
DeleteMessage script to comment this phrase out, but it was ignored.
Ironically, the modification did seem to work if CTRL-D is used
instead of the DELETE key.  But, this is not satisfactory since the
DELETE key is conveniently located to the arrow keys.

2.  When an open message is deleted with CTRL-D, that same message is
read again instead of the next unread message being read.  This is
with the virtual cursor enabled.  I increased the delay in the
DeleteMessage script, first to 4, then to 5 and finally 6, but the
problem was not solved even then.  This is a show-stopper since JFW is
not properly reading what is on the screen.  It makes JFW virtually
unusable in Outlook Express 5.

3.  In an attempt to work around the above problem, I turned the
virtual cursor off and opened a message.  However, it did not begin
reading as it did with JFW 3.30.  I even tried pressing INSERT-ESCAPE
to refresh the screen, but this did not help.  We should be able to
achieve the behavior of JFW 3.30 in OE 5 by turning off the virtual
cursor.  That automatic reading of the next message is one of the
strengths of JFW with regard to OE 5.  Losing this ability is a step
backwards.
