March Update #4 -Version 11.0.1713 : Your "Hot New!" shortcuts do not work!
HOT New! - keyboard shortcuts to get focus in toolbar (ctrl L for URL, ctrl J for read mail icon).......................NONE OF THIS WORKS either for me or for my friend on her computer. I have cleared my browser. I have signed off and on twice. IT DOES NOT WORK!
Control J only highlights the mailbox. It does not open it.
Control L does nothing.
Do you test before you put things out?
The CTRL+J key combination, will highlight the Read mail icon (not open it). Once the icon is highlighted you can use the left and right arrows on the keyboard to select the other icons in the toolbar and press ENTER to open any one of them. CTRL+L will move the focus to the address box, so after pressing this key combination you can start typing a URL, then press enter to open it.

I complained that Control J does not open the mailbox. Below is the reply I just got and then they closed the case without letting me comment. SO it looks like with their latest revision it now takes TWO STEPS to open the mailbox. Why would they do this?? Is it not easier and faster to just click on NEW MAIL to open the mailbox? elow is the explanation for their new fix:
"The CTRL+J key combination, will highlight the Read mail icon (not open it).
