New mailbox design is worst new design choice I have ever seen.

Not happy, and using the shortcuts mean that I must ALWAYS have my computer within reach just to read posts.

Also - It is too small and my focus is usually on center of the page, not the upper right.

What is the supposed BENEFIT to this change?

Thanks Shelly. I have a 6 monitor setup and have lots of applications running so I'm very frequently moving the mouse around. Sticking just to the keyboard doesn't work well for me as I would be moving my hand back and forth very frequently between the keyboard and the mouse. I did start using the F shortcut today because my left hand is on the keyboard all the time while my right hand is on the mouse. I like that capability. The N and P keys aren't very useful because I would have to move my hand from the mouse to the keyboard. One thing that would be really useful is if there were duplicate shortcut letters on the left hand for righties and a on the right hand for lefties. For example, if A went to the previous message and S went to the next message, then I could do a lot of reading by pressing keys with my left hand while my right hand remained on my mouse. I realize that those letters aren't mnemonically matched but they are very ergonomic. To be clear I'm suggesting keeping the existing shortcut keys and just adding some duplicates so that we can navigate with one hand while the other hand is on the mouse. This may sound a bit ridiculous to some but if you are heavily using iHub, lots of movement of the mouse takes up a lot of time and can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome.

It would be nice if these two shortcuts worked from your favorites page (use M to go to mail) and from your mailbox (use F to go to favorites), not just from a post.

I use 1 keyboard for 3-5 computers and your shortcuts simply don't work.
Not efficient at all ! IMO
