¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI don't know if I've actually seen this behavior specifically with JAWS and Outlook. However, when I open Web sites in my Web browser JAWS often doesn't provide me with the Web site in its virtual buffer. This often happens when the browser first loads. It's as if I'm stuck in a kind of limbo and I usually press the tab key which forces JAWS to render the Web page correctly, allowing navigation to function as I would expect. I'm just wondering if something similar is happening with Outlook messages. You could try pressing the alt key twice. The first press of the alt key moves focus away from the message to the ribbon and the second press of the alt key returns focus back to the message itself. I know that I've seen similar things happen with NVDA where it doesn't so much go silent when a window opens but it doesn't seem to know where it is and forcing the application to quickly change focus away from and back to the window helps it to take a second look, so to speak, and things are back to normal. I'm wondering if this technique might also work with JAWS?
