Dear Terri, I can't address five of the Keymail problems you bring up, but as for making the BN show the subject in grade 2 Braille, here's how to do it.
Go to the file manager, choose protection, navigate to the Keymail folder on the flash disk, and unprotect the file called "email folders". Now, open "email folders" in the word processor and search for the word "subject". Just before the word "subject" you will see "G0". Change the number 0 to the number 2, and you will see your subject in grade 2 Braille. Let me know if this works out for you.

First, email programs like OE and Pine allow you to stay online and send a message immediately after writing it. But as long as you are reading email, Keymail won't do this. Second, OE and Pine will allow you to view the body of an attachment when you open it. Keymail shows all this return-path and other header stuff and you must wade through it before you can read the body of the attachment. This is true when you detach and save the attachment to open and read it later. Third, there is far too much duplication with Keymail. If I move an email to another folder, it's saved in 3 folders. OE and Pine only save messages to one folder. Since email hogs database space, it seems stupid for Keymail to have all this duplication. Fourth, both OE and Pine will allow you to press enter on a link in an email and IE or Lynx will open automatically and bring up the URL. Keymail should really have this feature, too. When we press enter on a URL, Keyweb should automatically open and bring up the web site. I miss the days when Keyterm was a part of Keysoft and I could use Pine instead of Keymail. Although Keymail has greatly improved, I still think I'd rather use Pine with my BN than Keymail. Fifth, Keymail always shows the subject in computer braille, but if I use my PC and WindowEyes, I can read it in grade 2 braille and I can read the subject line in grade 2 braille using my old DOS PC, too. I can understand why most of the header is in computer braille, but why can't Keysoft be changed so the subject line can be read in grade 2 braille? Sixth, Keymail can only do one thing at a time. Bot OE and Pine allow you to read, write and receive/send email without needing to close and open tasks through a menu. Keymail is good for occasional use, but I will probably use my PC's for email.
