Moderated It happened again, cannot access Thunderbird alert
Gene Warner
I have tried a number of way to stop it from checking or notifying me about updates, but so far nothing has worked, the only thing I've been able to do is to turn off automatic updates.
All F6 ever gets me is a loop between the accounts and folders tree view and the message list.

I've never tried it in T-bird, I think I turned off updates in that program.

OK, just now I got an alert to update Thunderbird, all I got was
"alert", then nothing more about the alert, so I used speach history to
read the whole message and got what keys to hit for each button, in this
case Alt+N for "Not now" and Alt+D for "Download update", but when I
return to Thunderbird to use Alt+N because I don't want the update,
Alt+N didn't do anything, so I used JAWS+Alt+W to virtualize the windows
and nowhere was the altert message found, the alert was gone, I suspect
that it was gone even before I used speech history to read it.

It just happened again!
Immediately after sending a message there was an alert from Thunderbird
but seems to have immediately disappeared because I cannot access it by
tabbing around or using F6.
Isn't there any other way to get to these alerts so I can hear what it
says? All I ever get is "Alert!". I know its from Thunderbird because
when I go into the JAWS notifications manager, the alert from
Thunderbird is the last one listed. But I can't do anything with it from
there.
Thanks!

Yes, it just jumps back and forth between the folders pane and the message list pane.
