Dear Bert,

yes, it would appear that keyman now no longer offers the free home-edition.

If for some reason the solution below does not work well for you yudit  
which is free, see www.yudit.org, is a text editor that allows you to  
input in many different languages, includes several typing in Greek  
options, however one would have to copy and paste from yudit into an  
email. Yudit can be adjusted so that you use whatever keys to type with.

Regards
John
