There is a setting in voice over where you can disable the announcement
of column headers, this should turn off the reading of the title of
each column.
Original message:
Thanks very much for that Alex.
I have never used Classic View before today, but you’re right, enabling
it has allowed me to turn some of this stuff off. I do wish VO didn’t
speak the field before the contents of each field, but at least it’s a
little better than what I had.

I am not running OS 10.9 yet, but it sounds like you have disabled
Classic View. I don't use that feature, but what you describe - the
ability to decide exactly what get spoken with each message - is
Classic View behavior. Open Mail Preferences, and see if you can find
the Classic View setting checkbox. That might work, I am not sure.

Hi everyone, so far I must say I’m disappointed with Mail in Mavericks.
Mail in Mavericks has become way to chatty for my tastes and I’m hoping
I’ve just missed a setting to make it stop.
In Mountain Lion, I had my message list set up so all I heard was the
sender, and the subject. If there was an attachment, I heard that too.
Now it seems the time that the message was sent and some other stuff
that just slows me down is included and I haven’t found a way to turn it off.
Second, the number of messages in a conversation is now spoken at the
end, after the message header details and the message preview. I’d
prefer the old behaviour, where I heard how big the conversation was at
the very beginning.
And finally, I used to get from my message list to the email i wanted
to read by pressing VO+J. The message would immediately start to read.
Now it seems a first press of VO+J does nothing at all, and to do the
same thing that once took 1 press of VO+J now takes three. I think this
latter one is a bug.
I’ve really enjoyed using Mail in Mountain Lion but if I can’t get the
chatty behaviour under control, will run Outlook in a VM.
Thanks for any thoughts.
