JAWS also has some built-in hot keys to read these fields, although I hardly 
ever use them. They're there, though. Alt-1 will read you the From field, 
Alt-2 will read you the date, Alt-3 will read you the To field, Alt-4 will 
read you the CC field, Alt-5 the BCC, and Alt-6 will read you the subject 
field. If you push these keystrokes twice in quick succession, it'll 
actually move your cursor to those fields. Take care.

My suggestion which follows may be very dependent on which screen reader
and mail program happens to use.
I have set up in Window-Eyes hot keys which read to me the lines such
things as the "from:" and "subject" and "date" lines of msgs.
That way, if I happen to be in a msg and have no idea what the subject is,
who the poster is, whether the msg is current or from Thanksgiving day, I
can quickly hit the hotkey for that line, be told the info, and not lose
where I happen to be within the text.
Having done this, I am saved a lot of frustration (and time, I suppose).
Subject lines tend to be on 1 of 2 lines so I have a couple of hot keys
for that.
Dependent on which list I happen to be on, I know which one will likely
give me the info first.
If I am wrong, which I certainly can be, I have the other hotkey to then
try.
