>>    Hi, all.

>>
>> Well, I'm beginning to seriously believe that I was very wrong.

>>
>> This is leading me to two questions:
>>
>> 1.  Does anyone know where I might be able to get a trial version of
>> Outlook
>> 2010 to see if I can get it to work any better?
>>
>> or
>>
>> 2.  Perhaps better yet, what other e-mail management programs have any of
>> you found that work well with g-mail, and windows 7?
>>
>> For the record here, I'm using Jaws 14.
