Welcome to the list Cristóbal.  Indeed it is active.  We currently have about 98 members.

 

LOL let's just say that I had a difference of opinion in the art of list management with the owner/moderators of BlindTech.

Wow, I don’t’ check the lists for a couple of days and apparently everything goes poopoo.

So is this list actually active?

All sorts of drama on BlindTech.

I don't use Thunderbird but I have it on my machine so I can try to see how things are done.  I hate to tell you, but you have been doing things the hard way. 

 

Open the message, shift tab to the from field, and then open the context menu.  Up or down arrow, I think up arrowing is faster but I didn't check carefully, and you will get to an item that says something like send a message to.  but instead of just stopping on that item, it would be a good idea to go through the entire menu and see what options, in addition to the send message option, are available.  When you are working with something and you can't see an easy way to do something, or even if you can see an easy way, opening the context menu and looking around is a good idea.  I'm speaking in general, not just Thunderbird.

Are you referring to a laptop layout command when you discuss the NVDA shift down arrow command?  I'm not sure what that command would be on the desktop layout.  I suspect the desktop command is insert numpad down arrow.

Subject: Re: [TechTalk] How to reply privately

It's pretty much the same in tb, just a few things of note to keep in mind, at least with NVDA. NVDA has always had some kind of strange issue with keeping focus within those areas inside the message headers, so, using the normal commands to move about through the field to copy them may not work or give you response as expected. Rather, I find it easier to use NVDA's ability to copy the text from flat review and then the NVDA command to place that in the clipboard. For me, when I tab to the field that contains the sender's address, it has it displayed as a menu, so I have to first enter that object using the NVDA+shift down arrow command. From here. I can set the start of where I wish to copy with NVDA+f9, use flat review to move to the end of the address and NVDA+f10 to copy it to the clipboard.
Hope this helps, and tc.
Blessings.

Considering how many times over the years, I see blind people on different lists not know how to respond privately to someone, here are instructions that will work on some, perhaps many, e-mail programs. 

 

Be on the message in the message list.

Open the message properties with alt enter, that is, hold alt and press enter. 

Issue the command control tab.

Try down arrowing.  If you can't down arrow, tab once.  Now try down arrowing again.  If you have to tab once, do that every time you follow this procedure before down arrowing. 

Now start down arrowing through the message headers.

There will be a lot of information but you will find a line that says from and then gives the address of the sender.

Move to the start of the address.

Then use the command shift end to select it.

Copy it to the clipboard. 

Close properties with escape.

Then start a new message and paste the address into the clipboard. 

 

Some e-mail lists won't display the original sender's address in the properties or anywhere else but many lists do. 

 

It would be a good idea if people would send instructions about how to reply privately with different e-mail programs.  I know the method I gave works in Outlook Express, Windows Live Mail and, presumably Windows Mail.  I don't know if it works in Word or Thunderbird.

This brings up a related question.

My ISP is Comcast. If I grab torrents using a program such as Utorrent, is the use of Betternet likely to shield my IP sufficiently to preclude Comcast from sending one of those nasty notices? Some persons allege that Comcast sends such a notice any time a torrent program is used, regardless of what is being downloaded.

Hi All,



Below is an app I came across that might benefit some of you.



Fact of the day:

Splenda was an insecticide that became a sweetener when an assistant

misheard an order to "test" it as "taste" it.



Things to ponder:

Why is an Alarm Clock Going "off" when It Actually Turns on?



One Touch to Unblock Websites | For some reasons you may not be able to
visit a website due to restrictions by service providers or censorship by
institutions or governments at your location. However, these geo
limitations
can easily be overcome by average users. How easily? Hey, it is just a
tap
on the screen.

On a mobile device, install and run this app,



Betternet



tap the "Connect" button, you can then unblock and access all websites

services including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or other websites banned at
your location or workplace. Simple as that.

What this app provides is a free unlimited Virtual Private Network (VPN)
service. It detects your location automatically and connects you to the
nearest server that can access all websites and services, therefore
bypassing your default server that may restrict your access right.

Besides encrypting your data for security, this app also allows you to
surf
the Web anonymously. It changes your IP address so that your online
identity
is anonymous and internet activity is hidden. With this, you can gain
access
to geo restricted services such as Netflix that limits its availability

Thanks to you, Carlos I have set my Windows 10 laptop to never download the MS driver updates or the manufacturer’s updates automatically. Glad to have this done before I got in the same position James found himself dealing with. I do believe, by popular opinion that your job is safe. (At least for now!)

Hi,
This raises a question. If I'm on a unique
IP address, does this mean I can do whatever, and I will not be caught?

Subject: [TechTalk] 1 Touch to Unblock Websites

Hi All,



Below is an app I came across that might benefit some of you.



Fact of the day:

Splenda was an insecticide that became a sweetener when an assistant

misheard an order to "test" it as "taste" it.



Things to ponder:

Why is an Alarm Clock Going "off" when It Actually Turns on?



One Touch to Unblock Websites | For some reasons you may not be able to
visit a website due to restrictions by service providers or censorship by
institutions or governments at your location. However, these geo limitations
can easily be overcome by average users. How easily? Hey, it is just a tap
on the screen.

On a mobile device, install and run this app,



Betternet



tap the "Connect" button, you can then unblock and access all websites and
services including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or other websites banned at
your location or workplace. Simple as that.

What this app provides is a free unlimited Virtual Private Network (VPN)
service. It detects your location automatically and connects you to the
nearest server that can access all websites and services, therefore
bypassing your default server that may restrict your access right.

Besides encrypting your data for security, this app also allows you to surf
the Web anonymously. It changes your IP address so that your online identity
is anonymous and internet activity is hidden. With this, you can gain access
to geo restricted services such as Netflix that limits its availability to
some countries only.

Better still, this app does not impose irritating ads on the web pages you're
browsing, though it does occasionally recommend third party apps to you.
This is how Betternet works for free with no ads but covers its costs from
promoters who pay Betternet in return for recommendation.

You can install Betternet to your Android or iOS mobile devices from the
links provided below, or go to the download page to get a version for
browser extensions or the Windows desktop.

Betternet is not the only VPN service as there're plenty of them in the
market, some free with ads and some that you need to pay for, including
