I have Mail Reader listed in the menu on this computer. Can someone
tell me what the procedure is to make it read/speak some text?
It does not respond to the same number pad keys as Orca. Orca might
work if I could adjust the voice to something intelligible, the
default;;t seems to lose syllables from each word.
As it is I have to use an iPad and ask Siri to read messages. Not a good
system for me.
You list XFCE in your sig. I use Xfce also. My main menu shows "Mail Reader"
also, but that is just a link to the default mail program that I have selected. For me it
is Evolution. Yours could be something else.
And note that "mail reader" does not mean that it reads it to you. It is the
program you use to read mail.
