Re: Email reader for the blind
Ubuntu has great accessibility tools such as orca for the gui or espeak for the cli (which some blind users prefer) check out: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accessibility Also if you happen to be on identi.ca (open source version of twitter) there is a very adept blind linux user by the name of kajarii http://identi.ca/kajarii that may be able to assist you further. He also hangs out in irc although not a ubuntu user I believe the application knowledge should transfer.

Email reader for the blind
Hello all I have a friend who is virtually blind and would like to migrate from MS to Ubuntu. He requires a 'text-to-audio' program to read his emails. Does anyone know of an OS program which can run under Ubuntu to achieve this ? Thanks for any help David Bowskill -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
