Hi Jacob, well, I think we can disreguard my previous post. I looked around and found a different directory to download from and I now have version 3.0B instead of 3.0A. I replaced the contents into my /usr/local/lib and all is working fine now. In fact, I'm lovin' this! The gmail setup was excellent and I'm replying with the 'list-reply' function. This latest version is really cool! In fact, it works much better here with Orca than it does with Window-Eyes. The only other mail program that has a list-reply function that I know of is mutt so I was tickled pink to see that function added heere. I also love the notification if a thread is collapsed or not. The windows screen readers can't point that out. So again, sorry folks for the false alarm; I now have thunderbird working and this may give mutt some serious competition.
