Gmail has got shortcuts in it like we have in yahoo. This feature often goes unnoticed because it is not enabled by default. ( I found it only last week ! So is my father ).
To enable shortcuts go to settings. In the general settings ( the very first page ) turn keyboard shortcuts on. Now save the settings. Back in the inbox you will find a ' > ' waiting before the last mail you read. This is the indication of which mail you are pointing to.
Here are the basic shortcuts :
While in the inbox or while reading a mail these will work. Remember while you are entering text shortcuts will be counted as text inputs.
c - Compose
Shift + c - Compose in a new window
j - Older mail ( the arrow > moves down while you are in the inbox )
k - Newer mail
enter or o - Open mail
/ - To place the curser in the search box
u - Back ( Like Back to Inbox or Back To Contacts )
r - Reply
f - Forward
gi ( g followed by i pressed in sequence )
- Go to inbox
gd - Go to drafts
gs - Go to sent mail
gc - Go to contacts
For the complete list of shortcuts see the learn more button just near the ' turn keyboard shortcut on ' option in gmail settings.
