Hi Jim, Windows 8.1 comes with the metro app called simply Mail. Like most Metro apps, it leaves a lot to be desired. I have not fooled around with it too much, but I can see from when I have, that you can tab or shift tab back and forth through a new message, and add your receipients, subject, and then write the body of the message. Then you will have to shift back up the list to find the send button. I am not sure if there are any short cut kkeys for it, like in Windows Live Mail, you can press Alt+S to send the message. However, I am using the latest version of Windows Live Mail on my 8.1 machine. It is part of a suite called Windows Live Essentials 2012, and the WLM is version 16. Then there is always Thunderbird which is free, and of course Outlook. Basically the same old choices.

I'll be getting a windows 8.1 computer in a month or so, and want to know ahead of time.
