I've found the screen layout mode convenient when I needed to paste
something to someone who is sighted, or when looking on the perldoc website.
I also find it convenient when I'm using braille. I don't use it for
everyday navigation with speech, but it comes in handy for me fairly often.

Rick says you can't delete the My Documents folder and he is probably right, I
am not inclined to try it just in case I lose it. I notice though in the
properties that the read only attribute is a 3state check box like all other
folders, I don't see any other unique characteristics about it

David, what happens is that I read my unread messages one after another, and
I have it set to order by subject. Maybe that is why they appear out of
order. I'm not being very clear here, but I do notice that some appear
slipped into the list of messages that I have not deleted right away.
Well it may not happen all that often I don't really know. I just noticed this
