Hi Ray,
I didn't know you wanted comments on Braille, but there are no problems that
I know of with either JAWS or Window-Eyes. I use Braille output with both.
Actually though, the only problem I have come across is that I receive one
or two newsletters from companies, where the message consists only of links,
which are not labelled, so in that case, you don't know what products they
are trying to show you, as these tend to be just pictures. This is where
HTML does become difficult to handle.
All the best

Thanks to those who did comment on the question of HTML vs. text emails.
I'm well aware of the supposed or actual risks that are said to accompany
HTML emails; it was the accessability angle I was really focusing on.
Justin pointed out the problems that Zoomtext users can face with the
formatting of some HTML messages. We didn't hear from Braille output users
though, and it might be interesting to hear whether this any one using a
Braille display really does have a problem, and if they necessarily should
be having problems anyway.
Thanks.
Ray
