[orca-list] Status of claws-mail

[Lorenzo Taylor <daxlinux gmail com>]

I just tried to use claws-mail, but found I couldn't read the message list or 
folder list. There is something that shows up as a scroll pane and something 
else that just shows up as a panel. I would be very interested in using 
claws-mail on a regular basis, because out of all the available gnome-based mail 
readers and others that work with Orca, claws-mail seems to be by far the most 
configurable. Is there a technical reason why it seems to still be unusable with 
Orca? Is it simply a matter of filing the bug report in the right place? If so, 
please let me know and I will file the bug report. Has there as yet been any 
communication with the claws-mail developers to try to track down where the 
problem is? Someone more knowledgeable about the accessibility infrastructure 
may need to help solve this problem, because I usually end up getting the hard 
questions about how internals work when I try to discuss how Orca works with an 
application and I don't really know that much about the internals.

Thanks for any help,
Lorenzo
