Hi Neil: You can go into your view menu, by vo-m, and arrow or vo-arrow right to view, and you will find "sort by." You can check in Mail preferences to find display preview pane, I think.
And your fn key (bottom left corner of your keyboard) ) plus arrows will give you page up, down home and end. If you've interacted with a message table, fn-vo-left arrow takes you to the top left corner of the table, and fn-vo-right arrow to the bottom right. Sounds like you've done very well adapting. Nice going. and I hope this helps. Carolyn Haas [email protected] On Nov 1, 2010, at 1:07 PM, Neil Barnfather - TalkNav wrote: > Hi all, > > a few questions for you...
