Accessibility improvements
This add-on adds the following keystrokes:
- Control+arrows in message view to provide table-like navigation.
- NVDA+DownArrow in message view to read the last message in current thread.
- N and P to go to next or previous unread email in conversation view.
- NVDA+X in thread view to expand all messages in current thread.
Also this add-on adds following features:
- Conversation view is recognized as a table with table navigation commands working.
- Much less verbose announcement of conversations in conversations window.
Other notes
- eM Client automatically combines emails into threads. Unlike Outlook and Thunderbird, you cannot see individual emails in the default configuration, and the basic unit appears to be thread, rather than email.
- In thread view eM Client presents individual messages as frames, and therefore the most convenient way to jump between messages is M and Shift+M keystrokes.
- In the main window press F6 and Shift+F6 to jump between folders tree view and conversations table.
