As has been stated by others, I don't have a lot on this computer that is all that sensitive, I use it at home, and I am the only one who uses it. FileVault does seem more trouble than it's worth. Sent from my iPhone On Oct 18, 2014, at 8:20 PM, Deb Lewis deblewi...@gmail.com wrote: I know

There is a short cut for getting mail, it's command shift n, as far as a quick way to launch the mail program, I have a short cut in the doc, so, I press control+f3 to go to the doc, press m for mail, and press enter to launch it, quite fast. On Apr 19, 2012, at 9:43 PM, Mickey Quenzer wrote:
