Well, grin, guess you learn something everyday, as I didn't know you could send an email this way. For, guess I've always just found it easier to launch emails from the email program itself.
But, to answer your question, try this: hit F 1 and then the letter A to bring up the address manager; then type in the last name and press enter as you were doing; then your likely fastest way to accomplish getting to the email address field is to press dots 4 6 with space to go to the bottom of the fields list; if you then land on the desired email address you can just press enter to launch the email program; or if you're not on the desired email address you can press space with dot 2 to go backwards through the fields to get to it before pressing enter. Now, as to searching by the first name, once you open the address manager and hear the last name prompt, hit space with dot 4 to get you to the first name field where you can type in the first name for which you want to search and press enter. Or, for that matter, you can press space with dots 4 5 6 to get to the end of the fields in which to search, and then press space with dot 1 to go back to the desired email field and perform your search using that field. Note also that, when doing your search, you don't have to type in the full name or email address, as the program will search using a partial name or address. ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Gladstone <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, Oct 19, 2010 22:15:35 Subject: [GWN] choosing email addresses > > > > > Hi All, > > What am I doing wrong?
