Look at what the prompt says when you hit "c".

See section 3.2 of the manual.

Use <previous-entry> and <next-entry> to move the cursor. See the key
binding help screen to see what they are bound to (usually "K" and "J" by
default).

Use <sync-mailbox>. See the key binding help screen to see what it is bound
to (usually bound to "$" by default).
