Assuming you are running Lion or Mountain Lion, one way to accomplish this is to use Mail's Favorites Bar. Mailbox Aliases that are placed in the Favorites Bar can be directly accessed by pressing Command+ a corresponding number. Here are the steps to follow. 1. Toggle on the Favorites Bar either through the View menu or by pressing Command+Shift+Option+H. 2. Interact with the Favorites Bar and navigate through it to see if the desired mailbox is already there. If it is there, skip ahead to item 4 below. 3. If the desired mailbox is not present in the Favorites Bar, use drag and drop to copy an alias of the desired mailbox from the Mailbox list onto the Favorites Bar. For this task I've had better luck using the "mouse down, mouse up" method of drag and drop rather than the VO+, VO+. method. 4. Once the desired mailbox is present in your Favorites Bar, you can press Command+the corresponding number for the desired mailbox, where the mailboxes are numbered from 1 through 9 from left to right. This shortcut key will work even if the Favorites Bar is hidden.
