Re: Fw: Action required for users of Windows Live Mail 2012

As has been stated before, you can use GMail or any
e-mail program accept for certain Microsoft e-mail accounts. You don't
need to do or change anything because you are not using a Mic4rosoft
account. You are using GMail.

Its obvious they really have no care to try to fix eloquence being its old and that. Valve are doing the same with steam. For the rest I am uncertain. If I used eloquence at all which I won't be it would not be the legal one for the simple reason its got a lot of issues I wouldn't use. Dectalk synth is low cost and should be ok even though its not eloquence and even if some of the voices are quiet at least its legal if you ask and pay a little.

Re: Fw: Action required for users of Windows Live Mail 2012
I didn't spot this but even if it isn't true there are some truths to this.

1. its no secret, microsoft would really to kill their live app moving everything to universals and their win10 app medium. 2. as early as last year there is no secret on them killing live mail and live in general. 3. hotmail is part of their outlook site which is also part of their business thing. 4. everying is a service model which makes sence. So as far as it being an actual spam its a pritty piss poor one at that. Even if it isn't fact that links in it point to official ms articles put it to be a mostly true mail. Pluss everything it states are known there is no secret. Ms is trying to fix their mail app to. That doesn't mean I will use it but still. Even if its not true in some respects most of it is no secret for users.

Hi, to the moderators of the list,
why do you allow and advertise the codefactory addon if it is so buggy.
Many have complained, and no answers have been given. Just about everyone
who has bought the addon has complained of sound crackling, and I have a super
complaint. When I install the addon it kills my other vocalizer addon, and
removes it from the synthesizer list. Are you guys just not giving a care
because you get 10% of the sale, or what. People spend good money for a
voice and they expect it to work. I appreciate nvda and the work put in to
it, it works great, but these people are slow to respond to tickets, and if you
call them during over-seas business hours, the tech support team says they will
open a trouble ticket and plays dumb like the issue hasn't hardly been

Probably they will turn their back on that to, its possible they want everyone to use their mail app.

I suggest you move away and delete your outlook account, if you need an ms account make another one based on your gmail address. Unlike with other things ms has done to us there is a way to exit and I suggest you take it as soon as you can. Just because your business uses outlook.sucks major it doesn't mean your personal mail needs to be on there. drop live everything to while you are at it. Ms will probablyy make it all die anyway.

In fact I don't even think you can link some of these older accounts via pop. The only reason I have an msn account is that when I moved away from my isp, 20 years or so back it was never recalled. It has no mailbox attached to it and can not be used as an outlook account or anything. It can be used for other things. I have my gmail account as an alternit but thats just about it. Even when I had to use hotmail as part of my disability indipendance course I hated its restrictions even then and this was back in 2001. It was bad then and worse now. If you are in a business with a lot of things well. Saying that I would always have a backup. I am happy I pulled out of the ms previding mail scene ages ago.

To be honest I am unsure what to do if I got eloquence but the cracked one runs better than the legal, saying that, the synth is really old and in fact someone on my twitter that uses it says its spelling more and more words with wrong pronouncements. I have it on my phone but on here I don't know. I have tried different configurations and to be honest I'll take crapity espeak over anything because of its speed and loading capibilities alone. I can run it on a single core and no lag, even with 128mb of ram or less. When I had older readers I struggled to make orpheus, eloquence or whatever synth I had even a low quality as low as espeak on any single core without a stutter or a crash. And to be honest espeak reminds me of the old keynote gold which was what I came from, actually I went to a gemini, then orpheus then here. I never discovered actual synths that were of high quality till last year or so.

Mail 2012 Even I'll say that this is Microsoft trying to force people into a very narrow set of mail access options for e-mail services they own. I wonder what's going to happen to those with any of the Microsoft e-mail accounts (outlook.com, live.com, msn.com, hotmail.com) that are using other e-mail clients. WLM 2012 supports POP and IMAP and those two access methods are what every other e-mail client I know of, including the Win8 and Win10 mail apps, use. This is a peculiar and stupid move on Microsoft's part. Never underestimate the difficulty of changing false beliefs by facts.

Re: Outlook.com keyboard shortcuts
Well at least skype desktop I can get used to.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
On the outlook front, I used hotmail in outlook express but never liked it much it was a student thing. I stayed with my isp which itself was allied with microsoft but went to yahoo. Just before that though my dad's work meant we had to get gmail addresses for the cloud services. And I am happy I did. The only issue with google bar the privacy things which by the way I am more than willing to overlook is the toolbar which can get easily uninstalled. Google has a lot more services, and while they may take control of your life, system and privacy, they outway this by adding more services. I mean android, the gps and maps, the cloud storage and the photos. Never mind the search and the fact that some bits of mozilla stuff is based off their crome engine which aparently while like ms they keep breaking is starting to work. A strength google has that ms hasn't that bar our information and privacy and identities google has not demanded any payment for most of its services bar services for businesses including translation and business cloud services and a few other things to increase storage and translations and a few other things. Generally though the major services are free ones even for casual users, and heck if my privacy is worth that much to them they can have all of it for what I get in return. Yahoo would be my second choice but its antispam system unlike google's just never gets on with me and there are some issues on the isp that uses it now with attachments not downloading over 200kb in size. Worse its had several breaches here in new zealand that while had been resolved in other places never got done right here. Then there is microsoft. Msn messenger and windows messenger were the bitg things when I started. And heck their ms account is not that bad, however with the latest windows 8 and 10 oses they have started making it a challenge not to get frustraited with them. The cortana is one thing, the worse thing is converting local to ms without anyy care what the users wanted. I have people that use outlook.com via the web and thats fine. I however am happy I pulled out of ms when I did. They are good as a company but bar skype I am happy I stayed away from a lot of their so called services. Ofcause it doesn't help that for a long time business interests are what ms has been geard to the home and gaming users are on the side. Heck if google sold info to the highest bidder I guess I'd still use them as long as I got no trouble. I also like companies that do things with no strings and that are stable. I havn't seen google crash more than a couple times. The only problem I have had once was when the australia nz link had a data centre drive failier and that slowed down everything till info was rerouted and it was fixed quickly enough. I am not sure exactly if this is true but google has put everyone equal, it started as a consumer company and has largely stayed the same. I do think microsoft should follow example here. If they removed all the crazy restrictions in the last couple years which is all they have to do by the way I could live with it. Instead I have to hold off upgrades till the last possible moment or something to hope I can get in then try to make it up as I go along till the next twist of the screw. However, since 90% of pc users basically use it and its most common os its not like you can say bugger it and run away. And even if I was one of the minority htat did on my own terms it wouldn't mean I could leave it entirely for admin purposes. And to be hones to stay familiar with something even if you don't like it you need to actively use it to continue. Saying this windowslive has been on the dieing train for a number of months now and its no secret. I have had to remove it from most of the systems that had it on because it slowed down things. And lets face it,ms don't own the space anymore.

Suggestion to moderators
Brian's Mail list account BY <bglists@...>
Could it be possible that this list only sends out plain text versions of emails sent to it. I'm a bit worried that the scam Outlook mail which was forwarded here referred to an active X control via its html portion. OK so most of us probably blocked this, but it seems to me that this should not be allowed to occur on a list where beginners might be around reading the messages.
This is a security issue in my opinion, and I do not know what other email clients might do when this control is requested, seeing as I have no idea if its a benign one or malicious.

Re: Feature request: List of clickable elements in Elements List dialog and single letter navigation for clickable elements

I think something like this has been suggested before, but the term clickable covers a multitude of objects not just one type such as a link. Would it perhaps be better to combine it with links list and have the ones that are clickable either before or after or mixed in with as regards their position?

But, as a result of these changes, Windows Live Mail will no longer be able to sync with outlook.com. You will be offered some alternatives for your email including: Using the Mail app in Windows 8.1 or 10. Using the outlook.com website. Or, Downloading and installing a free one year subscription to Office 365 Personal, which contains Outlook 2016. I did have Office 365 Personal for awhile, and it did not include Outlook as I remember. The other thing about this email, is that it was sent from the email address: email2@outlook.office.com, which just looks suspicious to me, it should be from either Windows or Outlook.com. I called Microsoft support to have them check this email out, and sure enough, they came back saying that there is no such email address associated with Microsoft in any way, and that the links within the email are not linked to a Microsoft site. “This is definitely a scam email”. Should you receive an email of this sort, please call Microsoft Accessibility Support before deleting it. They took a copy of the email plus an image of the actual links that were in the message which were labeled in a misleading manner. Michael
