Ok, sounds good!
Thanks for the suggestions!
I think I must have had the desktop coppy running on the wrong
port that's why I thought itw as slow on getting emails.

No,
just reply. That is determined by how the list is set up.
Most lists don't require using reply to all.

Do you use reply to all when you send a message back to
the list?

Does it say both your name and
e-mail address? What about when you get mail from
others?

Ah interesting.
Is there a way to not make it
say the email address when I sent out a test
message to myself?
Perhaps it is checked by
default. I never had to change the setting.

Hello Gean and all.
I got it fixed!
Turns out I had the thread view unchecked.
Now the add on can see the columns.

That's right. I was
thinking about the other add-on, which is a
Mozilla add-on. It allows first letter
navigation in the folders tree view and it
is included in the copy of the program I
sent.
You could try uninstalling and installing
Thunderbird again and the NVDA add-on, but
just using the portable version would, I
think, be a better solution.

Thanks Gene. You mention an addon that's
included with the portable Thunderbird,
which app is that? Mozilla Apps
enhancements is an NVDA addon, not a
Thunderbird addon, so not sure if that's
the one you're talking about. My friend is
on the list and watching this thread, so
we'll see if she has any luck with it.

Since I don't
know what is causing the problem,
there are two things I will suggest,
though I don't know if either will
help. I am confident my second
suggestion will and I don't know
about the first, but I consider the
first to be an inferior choice. You
might consider running the portable
version for the reasons I give
below, as well.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the
program is one and the other is
trying Thunderbird portable.
There are one or two minor or very
minor things you can't do with the
portable version but in general, it
does everything the installed
version does. In addition, if the
program ever becomes corrupted, you
can have a back up copy and just
delete the one you are using, then
copy the backup to the location
where you keep the one you use.
And you can use the program from an
external drive or copy it to any
computer you wish and use it.
Here is a link to download an old
version of the program with the
add-on already installed and the
from line already displaying at the
top. The program will automatically
update after it has been placed on
the machine but even if the add-on
doesn't work, the program may need
nothing changed. I expect the
add-on to work, however, since it
did in this copy on my machine.
Its a portable program so unzip the
files wherever you want and, when in
the folder, type t to get to
Thunderbird.exe. Press enter to run
the program. You can also send a
shortcut to Thunderbird.exe to the
desktop and create a short cut
command to run it that way if you
wish.

Hi, I just
installed Thunderbird yesterday,
got the afore-mentioned addon, and
had no problems moving columns
opening the dialogue with NVDA+H,
though I got the no column headers
found error once until I made sure
I was in the message list. Today a
friend decided to get Thunderbird
as well, just installed the addon,
and gets the message column
headers not found. I remoted in
and tried matching some of her
view menu settings to mine, but
still can't get the column headers
dialogue on her machine. Being in
the message list or even in a
specific message doesn't help.
Rebooting NVDA and Thunderbird
didn't help. We're both using the
latest Thunderbird and NVDA with
Windows 10. Any settings she needs
to change to get this to work? She
wants to move correspondents to
the top of the list just like I
did. Thanks.
