The e-mail commands described in this chapter are designed to work in
these applications. To use them, make sure Dragon NaturallySpeaking

®

and your e-mail application are both running.

If you use Lotus

®

Notes

®

, Microsoft

®

Outlook

®

, or Microsoft

®

Outlook

®

Express,

you can add the contact names in your address book to your vocabulary, which
improves accuracy when you dictate these names. You can also have Dragon
NaturallySpeaking

®

automatically scan your sent e-mail messages so it can better learn

your writing style. For instructions on how to do this, see “Add contact names to the
vocabulary
” on page 160.

Checking for new e-mail

To check for new mail, say “Check For New Mail” or “Check For E-Mail.”
You must be connected to the Internet to check your e-mail.

You can say “Mail,” “Message,” “Memo,” or “E-Mail” interchangeably in any of

the e-mail commands.

Opening and closing e-mail

To open an e-mail message, select it and say “Open Mail” or “Open That.”
To close an open message, say “Close Mail.

You can also move to the message and select it by “pressing” function and arrow

keys by voice (see “Pressing keyboard keys” on page 109) or using the mouse
movement commands (see page 115
).

Composing e-mail

To compose a new message, say “New Mail” or “New Message.” Once the
new blank message appears, you can navigate to any field by voice and
start dictating.

If you use a different e-mail program

If you use an e-mail application that is not on the list above, you can
still compose, edit, and send e-mail using the global commands
described in chapters 3 and 4. You can send and print e-mail by voice
too, but instead of having built-in commands available to do this
you’ll need to say the names of menus, menu choices, and dialog
boxes, as described in chapter 9, “Hands-Free Computing.
