Hi Tony,
Are your messages in html format? i.e. When you read the title of the
message window do you hear 'plain text' or 'html'
If they are in html format, then I would expect shift + tab and tab to
cycle between links, in the same way they would while in your web
browser.
I'm still unclear as to why you use shift + tab to exit the message. Can
you not use the escape key?
Tim

Hi Flor,
I have checked the preview pane as directed by you and whilst it has
improved things a bit I still have the problem of when shift/tabbing out of
a message I am landed on a link or links of the email I'm in!
I see the options in the layout menu but don't know which one to check or
uncheck if that's what else I need to do.
Thanks
Tony
