Hi, In the mail application standard with the Mac I had the original view where you slide your cursor up and down and it read the message subject and author etc. Now it gives me this horizontal scroll bar, one entry and I'm a bit lost. When you open a message the text is read as one bloc

Hi Kawal, this is not correct I don't think. Holding the ` key and then pressing ; or p I'm able to switch in and out of the jaws cursor assuming you have the laptop keyboard layout selected under jfw settings. Thanks Scott On Aug 31, 2010, at 5:40 PM, Kawal Gucukoglu wrote: > Hi Scott. > -

You can thank that utterly corrupt organization called the NFB for the lack of accessibility products and tools from Microsoft. Years ago the NFB protested literally on the steps of Microsoft HQ because they had received a pay off from a 3rd party that will remain nameless but their initials ar

Remember, it's not in GW Micro's interest to say anything positive about native accessibility. They can't afford as a business for Apple to become popular just like a CF can't afford the IPhone to become popular etc. Instead of differentiating themselves and coexisting they have to bank of fear

I disagree, Safari and VO are a better web browsing solution than JFW and I.E. that's for damn sure. Speed, dynamic updates, access to java and on and on. I use both and have Windows under a VM plus apile of windows boxes and over the last week of learning have almost entirely dropped windows

Sure, what is the address top level domain you're sending from. Is this your own mail server, do the reverse and forward records in DNS match? Is there a PTR record present for your mail server if it's your own? One possibility is that the mail server your writing from isn't properly configured

I might just add that Carbonite is another option as well. I believe they have a Mac offering, if not someone please correct me. I know the Windows side is accessible. The advantage is offsite backup. Regardless of the solution you use offsite backup is important. Even something as simple a

The problem is your provider probably hosts spamming customers so their IP ranges end up in black lists. Spam Haus is a good example of these services that track spam based on IP addresses. Also note if you run your own SMTP mail server on mobile IP space or space that's known and recorded wit
