No. Currently, we do not provide a training/enrollment mode for Dragon for E-Mail. Our efforts have concentrated on enhancing the user experience from the get-go without enforcing an explicit enrollment.

No. Nuance is the biggest speech recognition company in the world with a portfolio of more than 50 languages for speech recognition and text-to-speech. However, the current version is localized for US English only. For the Canadian version, Dragon for Email will use US English spellings, i.e. "center" rather than "centre," "color" rather than "colour," etc.

If you have uploaded contacts during installation, Nuance will store only the names of your phone book on our server. Phone numbers, email addresses or other personal information of contacts is not stored on our servers. This is used for the name recognition aspect of email sending (to dictate to the To, Cc, or Bcc fields) and to improve accuracy and spelling when you refer to friends, colleagues, etc. in your dictations. If you opted not to upload your contacts during installation, none of your contacts information will be stored on the Nuance servers.

Yes. The message dictation system uses free-form dictation recognition that adapts to your voice over time.

Dragon for E-Mail (FREE) version has a limit of 1 minute audio recording with one press of the recording Key. You can continue to dictate long emails by pressing on Convenience Key again. This time limit ensures accuracy & prompt responsiveness from the Dragon server system. We always recommend dictating many short sentences instead of a few long ones. In future versions, we will reconsider this time limit.

Dragon for E-Mail is a self-contained e-mail dictation only application. It is not a general purpose dictation system like Dragon Naturally Speaking for desktop PCs.
