Well, Shift-Enter != Enter. Especially in Office programs, where that
combination has special meanings...

Hmm, AFAIK there is no shortcut for that. The To:, Cc: buttons even
aren't in the tab cycle.

I never missed that and still do not use the mouse:

- When starting a new mail, the focus is in the To: field. Just enter
the first three chars (of name, surename, nickname, email) and use
autocompletion. Hit ",", if you wanna add more or <tab> to go to Cc:.
- Same for Cc: to proceed with the Subject.
- Enter the subject and a last <tab> and you are ready to type your
mail.

Sure, I assume you at least remember the öfolks you are writing to. ;-)
Then you won't need the mouse at all. HTH

I never came across a solution for that, sorry. I suppose, compiling on
your own isn't an option? ;-)
