Also, at the risk of asking a dumb question, have you asked JAWS Support?  They do have support folks, for this kind of thing.

These sorts of things are tricky.  It does sound like the reading pane is on, but installing a new version of JAWS should not have turned that on.  It is an Outlook thing.  If you have tried INSERT-V already, you have already seen that there are a huge number of options there, and one of them may stop the automatic reading of the preview pane, but I don't know which one.  You can turn off the reading pane on the "View" tab of the ribbon, but exactly where it is depends some upon the version of Outlook you are using.  Turning it off is a good idea even if you get the preview pane to stop speaking from inside the INSERT-V menu because it avoids bringing up a view of the message each time a message is selected in the message list, and may make moving through the list a little more responsive.  If you don't find it, I can figure out where it is in Outlook 2016 or Outlook 2013, but that could be different than Outlook 2010 and is certainly different than Outlook 2007.

It is likely that many people on this list have some answers on this, but you might have better luck with computer-related questions on GUI-Talk which is more centered on these kinds of questions.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

Hi folks. I posted this yesterday but didn't see any kind of response. I installed JFW 18 and now it likes to read incoming Outlook emails, and I'd love to turn that feature off. I remember this issue with JFW 17.0 but don't know how I fixed it, I think it had something to do with turning off the reading pane? 
If anybody knows how to fix this, please let me know or redirect me to another list that can better answer?
