Hi, I am not sure you told about the search command for email but
I have been using it and I love it. It is so easy and is much
more efficent when I use it I think. I also went through the
command list and saw it. Not sure why I didn't try it before.
Sorry I don't remember who wrote about it but thanks.

Rose,
I just sent another message with a work-around that would have
helped you immensely. If you had navigated to the "to" field
while in the Inbox, then invoked the search command and typed
"qwest", you would have only seen those messages sent to a Qwest
address, including the one you wanted to find immediately.
I understand how one bad experience of this kind can put someone
off the whole thing, and also that once one is used to doing
things in a certain way, it's not comfortable to learn and use an
entirely new interface, especially when one is in a hurry.
I hope that, if you're stuck with only the BN for Email in the
future, that these suggestions will help you.
Sarah

It is me who does not like doing e-mail on the Braille note after
my
experience of downloading 360 messages once. I was in a quandary
to see
personal messages, with possible unknown subject lines and it
took me hours
to find the particular one I wanted, from someone I did not know
or what the
subject line would be, someone a co-worker was asking to write me
about
something. Maybe I had an unusual circumstance but I found the
whole
process, and the slowness after I sent only one message to the
trash to be
annoying and I am very glad I have my computer back to cope with
e-mail.

Dear Sherry,
I'm so glad you wrote this message, as I have been exclusively
using the
mPower for Email for several months now, and love it. I would
like to add
one thing, in light of a message I saw on the list a while back.
It was
mentioned that Email is difficult to sort through on the BN, and
that it is
much easier to do this with a PC. I have found an excellent, and
apparently
little-known, way of sorting mail on the BN. When in the Inbox,
press read
with f on a QT or space with f on a BT. This causes the BN to
inquire which
detail you want to search. I usually choose to search for
subject by
pressing s. Then I type part of the subject I want, for instance
"BrailleNote", and all my BrailleNote messages appear, without
any other
messages. Once all the BrailleNote messages have been dealt
with, I can
then search for the word "blind" in order to sort out the
messages from any
list I'm on whose subject contains the word "blind". I have
found this
method to be wonderful when it comes to dealing with a large
amount of mail,
and I'm talking about three or four hundred messages per day. I
hope this
information proves helpful, and I will be interested in finding
out if the
poster of the original message, I believe it was Rose Combs, can
use these
steps to more easily and efficiently handle large amounts of mail
on her BN.
HTH

As I've often said, I normally use a PC at home and work. Well,
since I'm
getting ready to go on my trip, I finally got around to getting
into the
connectivity options, setting things up and test driving the
mPower and
email, and the new ethernet card I got. oh my goodness! It was
wonderful.
Setting up the connection was very easy. And downloading email
.. sigh of
rapture. It was so fast and smooth and no glitches at all! what
an
incredible improvement in speed and efficiency.
just wanted to gush and say the mPower with the ethernet card,
makes it very
easy to do email on the BN unit now, and I'm confident I won't be
grumbling
and swearing at hour long email downloads, while on my trip! oh
yes, and
emptying the trash was so fast as well. I can really tell the
faster
processor and more memory. it's really great!
Sherry
