Answer 1

Yes, it is possible for microsoft keyboard, to change it you need to install the software that come with the program, if no software installed, the function of those special keys are limited to default settings only.

After the installation of the keyboard software, start the program, or go to control panel, keyboard, key settings tab, and click on the key, say mail, click edit button, then choose "start a program, mail or web page", put the email provider link there and click ok.

Then once you hit that special button on keyboard, the email provider/web mail page open.

Regarding the possibility of click a email button to open a list of email provider, i suggest to put those email provider's links on the bookmark of your usual browser, and enable the bookmark toolbar on the browser, then you have a row of button of email provider which can be readily accessible with a click on the browser toolbar.

Hope this helps.
