There is no outlook setting I know of where I have to adjust it for the screen reader to properly read other screen readers read it. so should NVDA.

You need to go to, in Outlook to File then Options and then under Mail find the setting which says Automatic Name checking and make sure that that is checked. I have this checked and if Dennis does not then this may explain the different behaviour.

This is very likely another instance where you have to help the screen-reader in some way by using read current line as you type. I don't know why Outlook is different, in the address bar in the browsers I use, autocomplete will read as what I type changes.

I was able to get it to read the first suggestion but not more suggestions. Example if I type j and joe smith is first it will read that if I continue typing and type john it won’t read John smith can this be changed that it will continuously read the suggestions?

I have just tried it and if I press K the most recent email I have typed whose name begins with K. Pressing the down arrow reveals other addresses beginning with K. I wonder if there is a setting in Outlook about keeping recent addresses you need to turn on? Having said that it is also true that this feature does not, for me at least, any longer, reveal results from all your contacts. I often have to go into the to button and search in there to reveal all my addresses in contacts. David G.
