I have 3 questions here which can be termed totally off list so you
can reply me privately.
1, I don't really know where to find the said configuration.  I tryed
in settings for cursor but did not get it.
2, Can I just install speakup in Ubuntu and expect it to work out of the box?
3, I wish to know if I can set alpine to sort my emails by decending dates?
I would also like the list to just have the subject and the flags such
as "n,a,d" etc. along with sender.
Can this be set and how?


I too find this a potentially perfect tool for my emails, although I
am thinking of giving mutt a try.
But really echo by word is extremly important for me when I am
composing or replying an email.
Happy hacking.
