Re: [orca-list] email suggestions



Started to use thunderbird and I just love it.
My only question, since the topic is raised is,
how do I get the idea of what level of reply I am reading.
For example if there are 3 levels of emails in my thread then I get some thing like :
>>>this is what I said
>>I agree
> but I did not mean it.

Ok so what did you mean



With thunderbird 3.0 I don't get this to work.

Happy hacking

Really, what I think you're asking is if orca is good enough so that
a blind person can use linux every day in their job. I don't know
about that. I only know that I haven't manage it yet. The hold up
for me is primarily mail. I haven't been able to become efficient
enough in evolution to swtich to linux/orca full time.

Have you tried Mutt or Alpine?


Hmm... Intersting idea. I have used both mutt and alpine in a terminal window because part of my job is to support those applications. I didn't think it would be efficient to use a character based program but I never really gave it a serious try. I really would like to find some way to read my mail in linux that is as quick and easy as outlook express. I'm willing to try anything.

As a systems administrator, I probably spend 99% of my time doing just 4 things, web browsing, editing text, starting/stopping servers at the command line, and responding to email. For web browsing, I've pretty much been able to switch from jaws and Internet Explorer to orca and firefox. That transition was fairly painless. So was the transition from TextPad to gedit. And of course, a terminal window in gnome works even better than openssh or putty. But I've really struggled with mail
