   NEXT

   The internally maintained "current article pointer" is advanced to
   the next article in the current newsgroup.  If no more articles
   remain in the current group, an error message is returned and the
   current article remains selected.

   The internally-maintained "current article pointer" is set by this
   command.

   A response indicating the current article number, and the message-id
   string will be returned.  No text is sent in response to this
   command.
