Remove beeps from list of emails
I haven't experienced this. Perchance are you an on a pre-release version of NVDA? Pre-release versions will beep when there is a caught error, so that developers can investigate the error. Jonathan

Draft view in Microsoft word.
This might be available in the advanced settings of Word. Try the alt-d shortcut once you have the advanced settings open. I am not positive this forces draft mode, but my guess is that it does. Jonat

Hearing "Unknown" when Using a Mouse
This is most likely NVDA telling you the name of the mouse cursor. Did you perchance use a custom cursor in a MouseOver? Generally, I just look for the mouse type to change when I pay attention to it.
