Well, for me it's personal preference and is something of an aid,
especially when reading through longer emails (Helps me keep context).
In the pager you can use the return-key to scroll down by a line or use
the space- and dash-key to scroll up or down a page respectively.

Moving to the next message will then happen with next-new-then-unread
bound to the tab-key by default.  Esc-Tab will move to the previous new
or unread.  Also have a look at mapping the next- and
previous-unread-functions to some "easy to use keys" as they make
browsing through unread emails such a breeze.

Many of the keys in the index menu work in the pager as well, so reading
through the list of key binds [1] is helpful either way.
