You can also select to top and or bottom with shift command up or shift command
down arrows.
hope that helps a bit.

Hello,
Thanks for all the help. On Windows I use a client called Thunderbird. When I
am in the folder list, I arrow to the folder I want and then just press tab
to get to the list of messages in that folder. Once done I just shift plus
tab back to the folder list and move to the next one using up or down arrows.
I can also select multiple items using commands like control plus shift plus
end to select all messages from the current one I am on to the last one in
the list. I have not removed the preview area yet by moving the vertical
splitter to 0 and I think I will do that next.

Actually here's a different way.
1. Press vo command t to get to the list of folders. If necessary hit vo
command shift t. This jumps you to tables.
2. no need to press vo space to select the folder.
3. find the folder by just up and down arrow or start typing the letter.
4. hit vo j to jump to the messages list.
If you have your preview pain gone by reducing that horizontal splitter to 0
you will be good to go. Just hit enter to read the messages and left and
right arrow through the conversations. No need for all of this interacting.

Hello,
Let me explain what I mean by clunky. I do have my messages set up with
rules to go to different folders. If I am in a list of messages here is
what I have to do to get to the list of folders so I can choose a different
folder.
1. I have to hit VO plush Shift plus Up arrow twice
2. Next I have to hit VO plus left arrow a couple of times to get to the
list of folders.
3. Next I have to press VO plus Shift plus Down arrow to interact with this
table of folders.
4. Now I have to arrow around to find the folder I want and press VO plus
space to select it.
5. Now I have to hit VO plus Shift plus Up arrow to stop interacting with
the folder list.
6. Now I have to press VO plus right arrow twice to get to the Message area.
7. Now I need to hit VO plus Shift Plus Down arro to move into the message
area.
8. I then need to hit VO plus Right arrow to get to the message list.
9. Finally I need to hit VO plus Shift Plus Down arrow to get into the
message list.
This is what I meant by clunky. There are a lot of steps just to check the
different folders I have.
Regards,
Greg Wocher

selection use vo up and down then vo enter on any messages you want to
select. The mail app is not by any means clunky. For me I grasped it
within in minutes of getting my mac 6 years ago. I had no choice in the
matter by the way.

Hello all,
Does anyone have any tips for using the mail app? I am finding it a bit
clunky compared to the mail apps I am used to on my Windows machine. For
example is there a way to quickly select a bunch of messages similar to
using control end or home on Windows?? I do have the 13.3 air. I know the
commands are a bit different since it does not have a full keyboard.
Thanks,
Greg Wocher************
