Guys,
This is all great, but what if the list doesn't allow you to
extract the sender's address that way due to its configuration.
The NVDA list does, but what about those that don't? I guess then,
you're screwed?

Another
way that I do it is to forward that message back to the
person.
So
I do control + F
And
then tab to the message body and arrow down to where the
from field is, and for most lists, it shows the sender’s
eMail address, usually with a less than and greater than
sign on either side.
I
copy and paste it without the signs in the “to” field.
So
I shift + tab back to the “to” field and paste.

Hi Christopher,
If you want to find the personal e-mail of a sender when you
are using Thunderbird for e-mail, do the following.
1. Open the message.
2. Press shift + Tab until you hear the name of the desired
sender.
3. Press the context key (the key 2 positions to the left of
the right control key.
4. You are given a menu of items including copy e-mail
address; add to address book, and send e-mail to.
5. Make your choice and you should be good to go.

I'm not sure and since the thread now
includes NVDA, I answered in another message concerning
NVDA as well. If the suggestions I made don't work, I'm
not sure if I have other suggestions but since the topic
has been broadened, my next answer is now on topic.

Gene, how in Thunderbird would I extract your personal
e-mail address from your post to the list?
Seeing I was mainly discussing JAWS, not NVDA, I boobooed.
I didn't read the e-mail headers correctly, and thought this
was on a totally different list which sometimes discussez
JFW. I consider my message further to be off topic for this
list.
I'd like however to try your suggestion, and if it doesn't
work, e-mail you privately so we can keep trouble
shooting... that is... of course, if you're OK with that.
Alas, thank you for your help.
Chris.

you should use NVDA with Firefox for a time and JAWS
with it only if necessary for some reason.
Also, your problem may be that JAWS
isn't lining up what is in the buffer with the actual
control you want to work with. Try the following:
Press the left mouse button instead
of enter. Don't route anything or change to any other
cursor than the virtual PC cursor. Just press the left
mouse button instead of enter.
I have one or two other suggestions
that might help but if this one solves the problem,
trying the others won't be necessary.

Subject: Re: [nvda] I've

I'm coming
in on this thread extremely extremely late, so forgive me
if
this's been already mentioned. I have managed to get so
much mail in my
inbox these last few days of abscence, that I can't
possibly go through
everything quickly.
One thing with JAWS 2018 and the latest build of Firefox
61 that I'm
seeing is an issue where you'll be on something which is
clickable like
a link, or a dropdown, or something of sort. You either
hit enter, or
space bar, and the stupid dad blamed thing either won't do
anything at
all, or more 9 times out of 10, it will jump me focused on
to my
taskbar. In fact, one time, I hit enter on a link, not
even a mailto:
link, and the stupid thing opened my Windows 10 Mail app.
Excuse my language, but, what the hell!
Absolutely this didn't used to happen, and honestly, I
can't remember
when it started. Ever since Firefox decided to go Quantom,
things have
just totally totally gone down hill with it. I get that
VFO is doing
their best with what they have to fix things, which I
appreciate. In
their defense, I get totally that they're trying, but I
wonder how much
of this is really VFO breaking things, vs. how much is
Mozilla breaking
things. I'm inclined to think more the ladder.
I'm admittedly not the biggest fan of Chrome on the
Windows platform,
maybe on Android, and on the mac, but not Windows. I'm not
totally sure
why, but yeah... It's not something I can put my finger
on. I just don't
care for it.
Anyway, I'd be curious if any of you all have seen this
behavior as
well. I'm told that supposedly, I'm not the only one
experiencing this.
Chris.
