David,

Have you considered possibly using the search feature within mail being that first letter navigation doesn't work?

WinMail is open, press command option F, as in find. would this be a viable option for you?

Chris.

Generally I use the standard view all the time and frankly I get a bit lost in Classic view. Although I am totally blind I love the ability to use the preview pane in standard view and am one of the people who routinely use VO J to quickly read emails. The major annoyance in standard view is the inability to use first letter navigation to jump to messages sorted by name from in the inbox. Un less somebody can enlighten me it is only possible to use first letter navigation to jump to a message in Classic View. Consequentially if I need to do this I change the sort order, change to classic view to find the email I need by first letter navigation and then switch back to standard view..

I have long since suspected that Apple will, eventually, discontinue the classic view in Mail. This is just my opinion, of course.

The funny thing is, whenever I see non-voiceOver users, including those in the Apple store, using Mac Mail, they are not using the classic view. I realize that the number of people I interact with is less than miniscule but it is an indication of something, I dare say.

The truth is, again in my opinion, when used correctly, the standard view is unbeatable. Again, just my opinion.

Perhaps I should stop using the classic view too, then. I’d resent it, but the only way of avoiding the horrible, terrible slowdowns in Mail presently seems to be not to use that view.

Deliberate sabotage so Apple can obsolete that view and further solidify the iOSification of the Mac? :)

Must try MailMate again soon, to see where we stand with that. I’d sure love an alternative to Mail.
