[MlMt] Keyboard shortcut "Single Key Read"?

Hi Andreas,

I have found that if I choose the general/universal inbox, I can then 
option-command down arrow to move to the next unread message.  Yes, 
pressing it again will go to the next unread message rather than paging 
down, but I consider this an advantage.  It lets me skip from a short or 
boring message directly to the next.

I tried to find where this is documented but I didn't see it in MM help, 
the MM manual, in MM preferences, system preferences, or in the 
"defaults" settings.  Since I don't know where this is set (or how I got 
it to work), it may not work for you.

BTW, Thunderbird allows one to transfer an email to a local folder.  MM 
does not.  Thus just looking through the MM inbox gets to all unread 
messages available to MM.  (I use both programs just so I can transfer 
emails to local folders.  Other than that, I consider MM superior to 
Thunderbird.)

HTH,
Travis
