Subject pretty much says it all...

Am on 68.4.1 using the NVDA screen reader. Accessibility has been flawless till this point.

Attempting to update past 68.4.1 causes the folder tree to become unusable via screen reader; it simply reports itself as "unknown" when it gains focus and you can't read anything inside it.

Any info / fix would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx much for a great product. THis is so much better than any other eMail program I've tried. Hope it continues to be maintained!
