Keyboard Bindings

SmarterMail includes a wide range of keyboard actions and shortcuts designed to improve efficiency and streamline daily tasks. By using these key combinations, users can quickly perform common functions, such as replying to messages, moving emails, or navigating folders, without relying on the mouse. This not only speeds up workflow but also provides a more consistent experience across operating systems and browsers.

  • Keyboard Actions are typically single-key commands or simple key combinations that applies to email, calendars, tasks, contacts, notes currently in view or selected in a folder. These actions are ideal for quickly managing individual messages, such as replying, forwarding, or moving them to Junk.
  • Keyboard Shortcuts, on the other hand, are multi-key combinations that allow users to create new items (emails, appointments, contacts, tasks, notes, or online meetings) and perform broader system functions, like selecting all messages, saving changes, or expanding and collapsing folders in the navigation pane.

Together, keyboard actions and shortcuts give users fast, intuitive control over SmarterMail’s interface, reducing the need to navigate menus and helping to maintain focus while working.
