From: main@jfw.groups.io <main@jfw.groups.io> On Behalf Of Tom Behler
Hello, everyone.
I don’t know if this has been caused by a recent Office 365 update, but my message list view in Outlook no longer displays complete header info about e-mails as I arrow up and down the list.
I can get the time of the message, and the subject, but that’s it.
I usually like to hear the date and other information.
I have made sure my screen is maximized.
I also went into the folder view menu, and made sure my folder pane was set to normal, and my reading pane was set to off.
What step am I missing here?
I’m using Windows 10 version 1803, the latest build of Jaws 2019, and Outlook 2016 under Office 365.
Thanks!

It’s working fine here with current Office 365, Windows 10, and JAWS 2019 (latest update). If you aren’t on the Office 365 monthly channel, try switching to that and upgrading.

Hello, everyone.
You may recall that yesterday, I mentioned a problem with Jaws not reading the full headers in an e-mail when going through a list view on my Outlook e-mail folders.
I now get only the subject line, the time of the message, and the size. The date of the message is missing.
My folder pane is set to normal, and my reading pane is set to off.
Interestingly, if I shut down and re-boot my computer, messages are listed normally for a while, but eventually, the partial listing issue returns.
I am convinced that this has something to do with a recent Offidce 365 update, since the problem has only occurred for the past few days.
I’d appreciate knowing if anyone else has experienced this issue, and what you have done as a more permanent fix.
I’m using the latest build of Jaws 2019 on this Windows 10 PC. My windows 10 version is version 1809.
Thank you!

David Ingram
Hi list members, i'm using earthlink.net with webmail. I can't seem to get the problem of posting replies to go to the top. I'm not sure what I should do here. If I were using outlook as an example no one would have a problem with how the messages are posting. I'm going to see what I can do if anything to correct the problem that I've been having.

David Ingram
Hi list members, i'm writing to let you know that i'm using webmail in order to write messages. I'm not sure if the webmail has commands semular to those that we would use when using outlook or some other e mail program. I'm sorry that my messages are not being posted where they should be but I don't know all the commands to change things here. I will try again to get some assistance to see that things are posting the way that they should until I get back to using outlook.

FW: Help gather accessibility data
Kevin Meyers <kevinmeyers@...>
Hello,
Below is a few links to survey’s for digital accessibility. I have taken similar survey’s in the past.
Cheers,
Kevin
From: Vivienne Conway <v.conway@...>
Sent: Monday, September 2, 2019 5:19 AM To: w3c-wai-ig@... Subject: Help gather accessibility data
Dear Colleagues,
Firstly, please accept my apologies for any cross-posting if you have already seen this request. Secondly, please be aware that this is not a W3C or WAI activity, but I have cleared it with EOWG to distribute to you as we plan to share the results with everyone when the results are in.
We are conducting research about changes in behaviour around digital accessibility. There are two surveys, one is to get an update on the user experience, whether people are letting website owners know of website accessibility issues and if the issues are resolved, and the other one is much needed update to organisational attitudes.
Would you be willing to complete both surveys and be willing to help with distribution? There is no commercial content in the surveys and nothing identifiable will be shared. We are actually hoping we get thousands of responses – it is ambitious, I know. People don’t really like completing surveys, but at the moment I haven’t been able to get this data anywhere so thought we’d just do some research to collect the data we need for our research papers. The surveys are very short – only 3-4 minutes average.
Here are the survey links.
Understanding the Digital User Experience
Digital Accessibility for Organisations
Here are some other methods to share:
Thank you so much for your help with this project. We will make the data available to everyone once it is collated, so that you can use it to further the case for digital accessibility.
