Mac Keyboard Shortcut - Reply in Mail

System OSX, Apple Mail

Tip

 We almost all use Apple Mail as our email client on the Mac. One keyboard shortcut that will save you time is for replying to your email messages.

This is one of the simpler shortcuts. While reading your email, you can reply to one by simply holding down on the CMD key and pressing “r”. This will then open the reply window and allow you to type in your response. To reply to all simply use SHIFT + CMD + r instead.

This doesn’t sound like much, but if you are replying to multiple mail messages each day, you will end up saving many seconds per message. As I have said before, each time you shave seconds from your daily work process, you make yourself that much more productive.
