Jay, great hearing from you - your website has become a recently bookmarked page that I've looked at a number of times!

Microsoft has just published: Checklist: Create accessible email, https://support.office.com/en-US/article/Checklist-Create-accessible-email-71ce71f4-7b15-4b7a-a2e3-cf91721bbacb, for Office 2013 and Office 2016 Between this page and yours, I think I may have enough to start putting together our own guidance - and then look for material specific to cloud-based Office 365, if that differs in any way.

The one aspect we don't yet have documented anywhere, to my knowledge, is specific guidance for AT users on creating and receiving/managing email - how do we use Dragon NaturallySpeaking, JAWS, etc. to interact with Outlook mail.

Thanks!
