Re: [orca-list] Orca not accessing the message content area in thunderbird after viewing one message

[Michael Whapples <mwhapples aim com>]

Hello,
I think for thunderbird 3.1.x there might be another issue. To work out 
if you are observing the same as me, could you confirm if you have 
messages open in a new window or a new tab. If you have messages open in 
a new window then I think it is the thunderbird 3.1 bug which is a 
Mozilla bug. What I have reported in this thread actually affects both 
types of viewing of a message. Why I suspect you may be encountering a 
different issue to me is that I only observed this when upgrading 
at-spi2-core to the git version, everything was OK with at-spi2-core 2.0.1.
