Nothing if my cursor is still on it.  But then I know where the mail is
and I can read the message.  Backing up to read rather than having the
message remain bolded is the point.

Just now I accidentally hit the '.' twice while being distracted.  The
cursor naturally jumped two messages and it took me a frustratingly long
time (perhaps 10-20 sec) to go back up the list looking for the message
I had missed.

On other occasions, I get zipping along flagging read messages (I could
easily have 50 at a time) and then realize I should have stopped to read
an earlier message rather than just breezing by, but I am unable to
backup easily or accurately.
