Proper Setup of Mail with VoiceOver

I'm not a major Mac user. In particular, I don't use Safari or Mail. I prefer the user experience provided by other operating systems and screenreaders. However, last night I had to work on someone's Mac that was having email problems. I ironed out the problems, but along the way, discovered
