[nobe-l] How to use Microsoft Outlook 2010 with Jaws

[Ashley Bramlett]

gmail is tricky; you have to set it to basic html to work. Even then it has 
frames; I miss outlook express.
As to jaws on a usb drive, I thought that the computer you were loading it 
on had to have jaws authorization already. I don't think its that simple to 
just take jaws on a usb drive. I wish it were though since I could volunteer 
or use computers at friend's homes without having to load jaws.

I once had a gmail account and found it to be horrible as far as ease of 
use. Maybe it was just the set up of my JAWS, but I couldn't effectively 
compose or edit mails, find mailboxes or messages, and quickly dumped the 
whole thing. For absolute ease of use, my personal favorite was Outlook 
Express (finding Outlook to be too busy). I also avoided Outlook because it 
always tried to automatically sync with and update my phone and Maestro, 
neither of which I wanted. Not a concern now (YAY for Mac).

As for JAWS on a flash drive, it use to be that you had two drives, one 
containing the program and a second containing the authorizations from FS. 
You should check with your IT people as most of the computers I use at 
school/work now only have two USB ports. I think this set up also allowed 
you to take your version of JAWS with your settings to any other computer 
with a JAWS authorization regardless of its version, but I won't swear to 
that.
