You should just try using VO-j to navigate/read the text of the message. Pressing return on a message in the inbox will open a new window. THis is why VO is reading info from the new window. VO-j moves the cursor to the content of the message, interacts with the content, and starts reading. THis is a very fast way of reading through email.
TO get back to the messages table, press VO-j.
