Are you using separate threads: one to read you emails; another to recognize "stop"?

I recommend creating another recognizer object that is always active and it will only recognize your stop or continue speaking words.

The stopRecognizer should then stop the main one.

Here's a code sample:

C#

private SpeechRecognitionEngine stopListener = new SpeechRecognitionEngine(new CultureInfo("en-US"));

private SpeechRecognitionEngine recEngine = new SpeechRecognitionEngine(new CultureInfo("en-US"));

private SpeechSynthesizer speaker = new SpeechSynthesizer();

In the Recognized event of stopListener you should make the SpeechSynthesizer stop speaking.
