As I did with McTwit or Twitter audio tutorials, I'd include a link in the documentation for the JAWS scripts, helping blind folks learn TB about 6 hours ago from web
Let me ask any of you good at producing audio tutorials (which I am not) to consider one for Thunderbird with or without my JAWS scripts about 6 hours ago from web
@jeroenmeijer Would you rather maintain mctwit.com or transfer it to me? I am glad about community efforts to support McTwit about 6 hours ago from web in reply to jeroenmeijer
@mishu70 Unfortunately, I could not find any unique graphic recognized by JAWS to indicate an attachment exists for current message in list about 6 hours ago from web in reply to mishu70
Added keys for focusing on fields when writing msg: Alt+T for To, Alt+C for CC, Alt+B for BCC, Alt+S for Subject, and Alt+M for message body about 6 hours ago from web

@mishu70 Thanks for research into attachment identification. I'll invistigate further about 9 hours ago from web in reply to mishu70
Includes fix for spelling of items when moving quickly through list or treeview, and others. See change log 7:27 AM Dec 25th from web
Beta 0.998 of JAWS scripts for Mozilla Thunderbird http://EmpowermentZone.com/tb_scr.exe or .zip (manual install needed on 64-bit Windows) 7:26 AM Dec 25th from web
@PD90 I suspect that happens without scripts, though am not sure. Anyway, I'll try to continue fine tuning of speech 4:34 AM Dec 25th from web in reply to PD90
@PD90 The flawed top message is a bug. Are you sure the double speaking and spelling of treeview items is new? 4:32 AM Dec 25th from web in reply to PD90
@Brettsta21 Should be fixed in the latest release 4:30 AM Dec 25th from web in reply to Brettsta21
TB scripts have addressed Alt+D for date, minimizing double speaking of list items, and reading message body with Enter 9:01 PM Dec 24th from web
Beta 0.997 of JAWS scripts for Mozilla Thunderbird http://EmpowermentZone.com/tb_scr.exe or .zip (manual install needed for 64-bit Windows) 9:00 PM Dec 24th from web
@Brettsta21 That is intentional, since top line is msg subject, which was already heard in msg list before pressing Enter 9:02 AM Dec 24th from web in reply to Brettsta21
@mishu70 If you figure out way for JAWS to identify attachments, I'll try to script it. That info is not given by MSAA as far as I can tell 10:55 AM Dec 23rd from web in reply to mishu70
@mishu70 Thanks for much helpful feedback! I'll work on issues you raised 10:53 AM Dec 23rd from web in reply to mishu70
@ppatel Thanks - we're making progress. Just uploaded another version that may fix the Alt+D problem 6:42 AM Dec 23rd from web in reply to ppatel
