Get the important information, skip the noise in Outlook

In Outlook, Narrator will read an email’s status (unread, forwarded, etc.), who sent it, the subject line, and any other characteristics of the email that are important or unique.

For example, Narrator will read if an email is flagged, but it won’t read if an email is unflagged.

Narrator won’t read any unnecessary table information, like if there are 5 empty columns, and column headers won’t be read by default.

Turn column header reading in Outlook on or off by pressing Narrator + H.

Automatic reading of messages

Narrator automatically starts reading email messages starting from the top.

Refer to Chapter 3: Using scan mode, for more information about how Narrator works with email messages in Windows Mail and Outlook.
