Try J and K (Shift-j and Shift-K).  These are bound to next-entry and
previous-entry.

I don't know specifically how to reference the up and down arrow keys but if
you can figure that out...

For your .muttrc

macro index j <next-entry>
macro index k <previous-entry>

macro index <up-arrow> <previous-undeleted>
macro index <down-arrow> <next-undeleted>

You can find the available commands for each section (index, pager, compose,
etc) at the end of the mutt manual.  I am running Suse 8.2 and they put the
manual in /usr/share/doc/packages/mutt.  

HTH.
