I don't think you're going to get that to happen. Mail isn't designed
that way.

Judging by the responses I got (or didn't) I must have phrased my
question about scripting Apple's Mail program rather poorly. I'm going
to try again.
When I read the mail, I double-click a message and it opens in a new
window. The toolbar in that window shows buttons for "Delete,"
"Reply," "Reply All," "Forward," and "Print." I wish there were a
button for "Next" and another for "Previous" but there isn't.
What I really want is to keep the message window open, and (somehow)
move to the next message *in the same window.* I don't want to close
the message window, and then double-click the next message. I just
want to fill the message window with the next (or previous) message.
I might be able to do it if I could figure out the basic syntax for
referring to the current message (the one that is frontmost). I have
tried things like
tell application "Mail"
set x to the id of current message
end tell
but it doesn't compile.
Any hints?
