Use Spotlight as a reference tool. Type any word in the Spotlight box and one of the top entries will be a definition. Click on it, and it will bring up the dictionary application to check the word in either the dictionary, thesaurus, Apple database, or Wikipedia.

Thanks for the tip.
Does anyone know how to toggle how many of those fields take focus when you tab through them? It used to be that tabbing would skip over the the customize, account, signature and priority drop downs, but at some point it started including them. Now I have to hit tab 5 times just to get from subject to message body.

@bocaj:
System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts:
At the bottom of the window is an option called "Full keyboard access."
Change this to "Text boxes and lists only" for the behavior you desire.

I'm not sure where I should be asking this question, so I'll try here. In mail after you delete a msg the highlighted field moves up instead of staying in place to delete the msg below the previously deleted msg. Is there anyway to change this behavior?

assuming you are in the middle of the list of msgs that is.
