Hi All,

An old post helped me label graphics in the headings in the message list view 
in Windows Live Mail 2011 using JAWS 12 on my 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium 
machine and I wanted to say thanks again to everyone who has helped to make the 
transition easier and to re-post the instructions in case they help someone 
else.

Margaret

Hi,

If you're using the 2011 version of windows live mail, then the graphics which 
indicate unread, attachment, etc are not labeled by default. Hopefully, this 
will be fixed soon in an update to jaws 12. However, you can label these 
manually 

yourself, as follows:
1. Open windows live mail.
2. Normally, Jaws is set not to read any unlabeled graphics.  To temporarily 
change this setting so that it reads them, so that you can find them and label 
them: press insert+v to open the adjust jaws options dialog; press G until you 
get to the item Graphics - labeled; press spacebar to cycle to the next option 
for this setting which is graphics - all, and then press enter to press the 
default close button.
3. When jaws reads a message in the message list, it now reads each unlabeled 
graphic as graphic followed by a number, and these all occur before the senders 
name. The graphic to label as unread is graphic 656. Other unlabeled graphics 
include graphic 160 which indicates attachment, and if you use the conversation 
view, then graphics 563 and 105 indicate
collapsed and expanded respectively. Note that graphic 294 indictates a read 
message, and you'll probably want to leave this graphic unlabeled.
4. To label a graphic, for example graphic 656 as unread: move to a message in 
the list which is unread, that is jaws says graphic 656 when reading it; press 
insert + numpad minus to route the jaws cursor to the pc cursor - this places 
the jaws cursor at the beginning of the senders name; press left arrow till you 
get to graphic 656; press insert + g to open the graphics labeler dialog; the 
initial focus is a label edit box, with the text graphic 656 selected; type 
unread, and the press enter to press the default ok button.
5. Repeat step 4 to label any other unlabeled graphics that you want to label.
6. If you close and reopen windows live mail, the jaws setting for reading 
graphics will have returned to just reading labeled graphics.

David.
