Kevin, As for your second question first, if you deal with the tedium of email on an iPad, and your email account is active, you should be able to do fine.
Now, as for dealing with email with a keyboard on an iPad, I just spent 45 minutes with Apple Accessibility to make sure whether I am right or not, and sadly, I am right. There is no way to jump from the subject/from field which is on the left side of your iPad screen, to the right side where the text of the message is shown just using a keyboard. You have to touch the screen to get focus into the body of the email. Granted, the Apple Advisor I was dealing with didn't really know VoiceOver, he was just going on his written information while I taught iPads and iPhones the last ten years of my working at a rehab agency for the blind before I retired in 2020. But, I was patient with him and let him have me try all the things I already knew didn't work. Finally, he was convinced that there is no command to do what needs to be done from the keyboard. I suggested he escalate this issue since Apple should have designated a keyboard command for this, but apparently they haven't. If anyone knows a work around that is half-way efficient, I'd love to know it as well.

Hi. I actually have two questions to ask in this note. First, how do I work with email on the Apple mail account on my iPad 13? I was trying to send a message, and this goofy thing wouldn’t let me do it with my Magic Keyboard. I was also trying to figure out how to get to the message content using the keyboard, but wasn’t having any luck. My second question deals with my M365 account on my PC. I know this isn’t exactly related to Apple, but I hope I can explain it so it is an Apple question. Earlier today, I got a note indicating my monthly bill couldn’t be paid. My question is will I be able to work with my email using the native email program on my iPad? If so, this will give me some time until more money comes my way. Thanks in advance for any thoughts. Please send letters to WWV, because I wanna be the DJ on that station. This is shortwave and ham radio humor, so for those who get it, I hope I put a smile on you.
