I tend to issue ctrl+home to go to the top of the page. Then I issue X to find the first email on the screen if there is one. I next issue a comma to drop out of the list. I then issue shift+X to find

a possible problem with combo boxes and latest NVDA
Ok, it looks like pressing alt+down arrow opens the combo box and I can move through it using either the cursor or first letter navigation. I am certain I tried this before but it works now. If I use

Oddity With NVDA And Thunderbird with Inbox status Line
Yep, I have this behavior too. wonder if there is a way to stop this using the pronunciation dictionary. It isn't a big show stopper for me but it would lessen the verbiage spoken. Dan Beaver
