I am not sure it is a good idea to use the Desktop, especially as these apps are already on your dock for easy launching. Just press VO D to bring up the Dock, press M for mail and then press enter. Similarly for safari press vo D and then S and press enter again.
Also if you turn on applescripts and commander in VO Utility right option M will launch Mail and right option S will launch safari If you really want to put these apps on the desktop, which is probably a bad idea as multiple items on a crowded desktop will slow the loading of your . .. > Mac if your desktop gets too crowded. 1. Go to desktop with shift VO D. 2. Bring up Applications folder with command shift A. 3. Interact with folder browser and locate Mail. 4. Press command L to create an alias of Mail. 5. Press Command C to copy the alias file. 6. Bring up Finder Desktop with command shift D. 7. Press command V to paste the Mail alias to the desktop.
