Janny, I just created a shortcut to open mail for me in the voice over utilities under key board commanders. I chose the right option key to be my commander and I just do option m and that opens my mail, but you can choose whatever key you want. I thought this way it is super fast and I do only one short cut key instead of going to doc or to spot light search, although those are valid ways that I use for other applications I don't use as often as mail and safari. HTH, Rachel.
