[PATCH] Improve moving between messages in a thread

Subject: [PATCH] Improve moving between messages in a thread

Date: Mon, 6 Oct 2014 00:12:17 -0700

From: Ian Main

This patch adds a few changes to moving between threads:

- It supports 'scrolloff' so that if you have this set it will move the
  buffer and cursor so the next/prev email starts at the top of the
  screen.
- It adds the ability to use shift-tab to go to the previous msg in
  the thread.
