Hi Mark, Hope all is well with you. I have found that the only way to do what you ask is to do a control left click like Carolyn suggested. This is done by holding down the control key and pressing the bottom left corner of the trackpad. This brings up a context menu in which open is the first option in the list. double tap on open and your good to go. This being said, it's quicker just to press enter on the message via the keyboard.
