Along similar lines, when I add an attachment to a document, there does not seem to be any way within the getfile dialog box to select the “Choose” button from the keyboard. Usually the Return or Enter key does this, or optionally the C key or even Command-C (tho that would be very odd). Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this short of using a macro program such as Tempo?
One more interface request, while we’re there: The Preferences dialog boxes require that you choose one or the other. It would be nice if you could switch from General to Mail & News within the dialog box via a popup menu selection, a la that found in most Adobe products.
Thanks for your help and interest.

Subject: Re: BUG: Don't need to cold Command key to delete message
To elaborate a bit, it's just a little odd that the key equivalent shown on
the menu isn't the (only) key that performs the action.
Personally, I would hate to have to hit Cmd-Delete to delete a message, and
I do realize that there's no facility in the Menu Manager for showing two
command keys on a menu. So, it's not an easy problem.
