[patch] improved user-selection of folders with new mail

[gerhard oettl <gerhard.oettl.ml@xxxxxxxxx>]

hello

When changing folder the input of <space> jump to the next folder
with new messages, but now the selection always beginns with the
first folder of the list.

If we have a couple of folders with new messages, but we are only
interested in some of them _now_, without knowing how much
folders contain new messages. The others we want to look later -
may be not so often. 

Suppose we have 12 folders with new mail, but we only want to
work with folder 5, 7 and 9 now. When ready with folder 5 we have
to walk from folder 1 to 7 to get the next folder of interest and
then from folder 1 to 9 to select folder 9.

This minipatch causes that the change-folder cycle continues with
the next folder after the current folder that has new messages.
When we are ready with folder 5 of the above example we have only
walk from folder 6 to 7 and afterwards from folder 8 to 9.


yours
gerhard
