Re: [orca-list] more than one blank space are not recognized in thunderbird

Hi Will,
No matter If I am composing messages in plain text format or HTML format.

Also the same problem happens if I am reading a message.

Another observation is that if I am reading the entire message or 
reviewing by line, the word with more than 1 blankn after it is spelled 
instead of read.
The following text:
" test test "
is read as:
" t e s t t e s t "

I am running Ibm via voice as my primary synthesizer.
Thanks.
