Hello Kawal, Linda, Et Al, When reading emails in the threaded view:
If a thread has 8 messages and you've read 3 of them and you do not wish to read the remaining messages in the thread, instead of using Command+Option+W (which will close all mail windows) followed by Command+1 (which will restore the Mail Windows but place focus in the unified Inbox instead of an individual email account Inbox, do the following: When you're ready to return to the email-account-specific Inbox, 1. Press Command+Option+W to close all Mail Windows. 2. Press VO+M to activate the application's Menu Bar. 3. Tap the letter W in order to jump to the Window Item. 4. Either tap the Enter key or the Down-Arrow key to open The Window Item Menu. 5. Tap the Letter M to jump to the Message Viewer Item. 6. Finally, tap the Enter key to activate this item. This will display the Account-specific Inbox (from which you left), once again. I hope this helps and remember to make a joyful noise. Mark PS I wish you all well as it may be quite sometime before I am able to post to this very excellent list, again. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionar...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Linda Adams Sent: Saturday, September 11, 2010 3:44 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Reading messages in threads Kawal, Thanks for the information. Command 1 works great to bring back the Mail window if totally closed by accident. I need to explain my first question a little more. If a thread has 8 messages, I've read 3 and don't need to read he rest, instead of pressing command W 5 more times, can I clear out the remaining messages and return to the message window? When I pressed Command option W it closed everything which is what I wanted to avoid. Pressing command 1 takes me back to the inbox instead of the Macvisionaries mailbox where I had been reading threads.

I have 2 questions. If there are messages left on a thread and I don't need/want to read the remaining messages, is there a quicker way to stop reading the thread or do I have to press command W until they are all closed? >> >> Also, I think I remember my next question being posted but don't remember the answer. I've accidentally closed the main window so the message table no longer is shown. I know I can close Mail and open it back up again again but wondered if there is another way to bring back the message table. >> >> Thanks much, >> Linda >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. >> To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. >> For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. >> > > > > ____ > Kawal Gucukoglu > (E-mail/MSN): > kawal_gucuko...@sent.com > > (Skype ID): > > kawalgucukoglu > > (Mobile/text): > > +447905618396 > > +447576240421 > > > > > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. > To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
