So much Windows Mailer crap on this list...

[Amanda Lee]

O' okay whatever JFW uses for turning off that symbol.  I don't hear it in
Window-Eyes or WinVision and use JFW so rarely that I don't remember and
when I do use JFW it's to drive the Braille Display only as I dislike how
Eloquence operates on the 266MHZ box I have at work and JFW does such a poor
job of implementing the Accent driver for the Artic Transport synthesizer.

I set symbols to most and I don't hear the > signs at all.  When I talk
to
people, I don't say punctuation or symbols to them unless I'm describing
the
syntax of something so don't see the need to hear it from speech output
either.  If I need to clarify the syntax of an item, then I review it
with
the appropriate review features of a Screen Reader or verify with a
Braile
Display when using a Braille Dislay.

yes, they are pronounced and I know I can kill them but then if I did
that, I'd get some char strings rong so don't want to.  In pine, you can
eliminate them from first generation forwarding and you can do this in
oe too.

Yep. You're in ISO 8895(1).

Now, please explain about the >< thingie. Are those being pronounced on
you? They do serve a function, of course, but I can also understand why
they're annoying with the current state of screen readers. Ideally,
their
presence at the beginning of a line of text should trigger some sonic
change in the speech such as pitch, I would think.
