To open a link in apple mail just press VO space on the link .
If you are using the excellent numpad commander of course just press 5 on
the numpad to achieve the same result.

To switch back from Safari to Mail just press command tab to cycle through
open applications.

To cycle through the open windows within an application use command accent.
Alternatively To review a list of open windows within an application use
windows chooser.
  
To review a list of all open windows and all applications the same time  use
application Chooser.

Subject: question: clicking links in messages

As I am trying to use Mac mail more and more instead of reverting to doing
mail off of the internet via IE9 in Windows, I find myself a bit frustrated
with my lack of knowledge on how to do certain basic things. 

For now, could someone please tell me: 

while reading an e-mail message in my Apple Mail on the MacBook, 
if there are links presented in a message, 
how do I click on one of those links to open whatever page that link points
to? 

I assume that if I am successful in opening a link, 
a new window will open to open that link in Safari, for example. 
Then, after reading what I wish to read, I can simply close the Safari
window and go back to the message window to handle the message as desired. 

Is this also a correct assumption? :-) 

Thanks much!
