Hi, Joel and Gerardo.
I assume Joel knows this but for clarity's sake I'll mention that the macro
to retire JAWS is insert+F4, whereas insert+F7 produces a list of clickable
hyperlinks in a web browser or email client. That being said, I agree with
Joel's suggested methods of disabling JAWS to benefit a sighted user for
viewing email or for naving the GUI intgerface for any Windows application.
