I agree, if I understood correctly. It would be great to put key
words and emails into keymail so it would block any emails with
those key words and put them in another folder.

Yes, that's something I would love to see in a future braille
note upgrade,
come to think of it. Though I only use my BN for mail when I'm
traveling,
it would really be nice to be able to create rules, as you can in
programs
like outlook. I just get too much mail and having it
automatically filtered
would be fantastic!

Yes, but we want mail filtered automatically. For example, I
want all mail
addressed directly to me to go into a personal folder. It would
be nice if
all mail going to the braille note list could be placed
automatically into a
braille note mail folder, etc.
You get the idea.

Terry,
You may not be aware that you can, indeed, sort your Email into
folders with
Keymail. I have about fifteen folders where I keep stuff in
Keymail. They
are not "real" folders, like where you store your files. In my
head, I call
them "virtual folders" because they look like folders in Keymail,
but they
are really all part of one big database file. Here's the
appropriate chunk
of the manual, and let me know if you have questions. This is
really easy
and fun once you get used to it.
*****
11.7.1 E-mail Folders.
KeyMail organizes your messages by sorting them into folders.
These folders
are located within the KeyMail system, and are not part of the
normal folder
structure of KeySoft. Initially, KeyMail provides 7 internal
folders. These
are Inbox, Outbox, Sent, Received, All, Draft and Trash. It is
highly
recommended that you create at least 2 folders of your own. Your
folders
could simply be called "Mail In" and "Mail out."
Incoming mail is automatically placed in the Inbox. When you
have read an
e-mail, KeyMail will prompt you to move the e-mail to another
folder. This
folder must be one that you have created, or the "Trash" folder,
and could
for example be your "Mail In" folder. Items moved from the Inbox
also appear
in the Received folder. A link to this e-mail also appears in
the All
folder. It is important to understand that if an e-mail stays in
the Inbox,
it does not appear in either the Received or All folders.
The Outbox stores your outgoing e-mail messages until they have
been sent.
At the point where you are about to send your e-mail message,
KeyMail asks
if you wish to save a copy. If you answer yes, you are prompted
for the
folder into which to save the e-mail. Again, this must be a
folder you have
created, and could be your "Mail out" folder. E-mail saved in a
folder prior
to sending will also appear in the Sent folder. A link to this
e-mail is
also placed in the All folder. It is important to realize that
sent e-mails
only appear in the Sent and All folders if you have saved them to
one of
your folders.
The Drafts folder is used to hold messages that have been
started, but are
not ready to be sent, and the Trash folder stores any e-mails
deleted from
the system.
New mail is automatically placed in the Inbox and is stored in
the order it
is received. If you choose to read the Inbox, KeyMail asks
whether you wish
to check for new mail before placing you in the Inbox at the last
item
received.
KeyMail encourages you to organize your e-mail as you read. Once
a message
has been read from the Inbox, you are prompted to move the
message from the
Inbox to another folder. In this way you keep the number of
items in your
Inbox to a manageable number, and you are able to organize your
e-mail under
useful categories. E-mail within a folder can be marked, either
on an
individual basis, or alternatively all items can be marked. This
handy
feature allows you to move, copy, delete, print or emboss marked
e-mails as
a group without having to repeat the procedure for each e-mail.
Reading or detaching file attachments received with e-mail is
easy with
KeyMail. Document attachments can be read without detaching, or
they may be
detached and saved in the normal KeySoft folders so that they can
be
accessed from KeyWord.
The "E-mail Action Menu" can be invoked from within any KeyMail
folder, or
while reading an e-mail, and provides tools for replying to
e-mail,
forwarding an e-mail to another person or group of people,
moving, copying,
deleting, printing and embossing.
*****
Some of the folders I have creted are:
BrailleNote
BookPort
NFB
Mom
Stuff
Games
Anyway, you get the idea, you can create a folder for any kind of
Email. I
don't know if this was made clear in the above section of the
manual, but
after you read an Email in the InBox, press space with e to
exit,. When
asked where to move the Email, type the name of a folder, and if
it doesn't
exist, Keysoft will ask you if you want to create that folder.
Say yes, and
you will then have a new folder where you can move all future
Emails in that
category.

Good one Paul;
The main thing I miss with the MPower is to be able to put your
e-mail in
different folders. That is why I continue to use the computer,
at work, for
e-mail. I love my BT, especially the address book. I can look
up any
adress I have and not depend on what little sight I have. Since
my sight is
getting worse, I am trying to stop using jumbo print and use the
BN more and
more. It sure is handy. I even keep record of my nut sales, for
the NFB.
I am hoping to make a data base or just put it in word processer,
of my
family birthdays. I might add addresses or put them in the
address book. A
lot of work ahead on my new baby!

I'd still drive the compact car. I'd rent the truck or borrow
one from a
friend when I needed to move large items. There is still the
matter of fuel
costs to consider.
Although one does lots of things with a computer, there only a
few
necessities of life as it were that the bn fills nicely. These
include
sending and receiving email, composing or editing a document,
browsing the
web when necessary and listening to audio.
The bn is certainly powerful enough to do all of these and with
good
programming, should be able to do them well.
There are plenty of people out there who find it daunting or
difficult to
use a PC. The braille note fits their needs quite nicely. There
are also
those who want a portable solution with a refreshable braille
display.
The bn fits those needs as well. If my house suddenly caught
fire and burned
to the ground, If I could get my Mpower and its accessories, I
could
accomplish all I needed to until I could get another computer for
the
superfluous stuff.
It comes down to portability, ease of use, a longer battery life
than with a
laptop and smaller size.
I believe that it is possible that the bn can be made to do
anything that a
pc can with good programming and accessories.
Yes. The Pc has a faster processor and more memory, but does
that really
matter when you are writing a document, downloading email or
browsing the
web?
