Replying to Email Messages

To reply to an email, users should be in the webpage containing the email to which they are replying.
Gmail gives users the option to reply to an email as a link.
Therefore, to activate that link, users should use the Links List.
Hold onto the Insert key and press F7.
Press the R key until JAWS says Reply.
Press Enter.

Users are taken to a webpage where they can compose a message of their own.
JAWS will say To colon Edit.
JAWS will also say Contains Text and Forms Mode.
This means that first area users are taken to is a section to type the email address where the message is going.
In this case, there is already an address in that field which is why JAWS said Contains Text.

In order for users to type a response, they need to go the appropriate field.
To get there, they should tap on the Tab key 7 Times until they hear JAWS say Message Body Edit.

This indicates that they have arrived at the appropriate section to type their response.

To send the response
Tap on the Tab key once.
JAWS will say Out of Table, Send Button.
To activate the send button, press the Space Bar or Enter
The message should have been sent.
