Keyboard shortcut for switching between new mail window and the mail browser

I need a keyboard shortcut for switching between new mail window and the mail browser. When I create a new mail, the window is overlapping my mail browser. That's a problem because I often want to look at a mail that I'm answering to.

I think there used to be a KS but now it's gone.

Any help much appreciated!

Regards Musicmind

I know that some users with non-QWERTY keyboards have issues with the keyboard shortcut command + ` (grave accent). One way to get around it is to redefine that keyboard shortcut.


In System Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Keyboard, change the keyboard shortcut for “Move focus to next window” by choosing a key different than “`”, for instance command + % or command + @, meaning choosing a key that is “more accessible” on your Danish keyboard.
