I got:

bind index \Cf change-folder
macro index c \Cf? # Change folder
bind pager \Cf change-folder
macro pager c \Cf? # Change folder

then I get the selection thingy right away

I got my arrow keys set up for up/down movement, and
<esc><arrowkey> for movement without skipping deleted mails:

bind index \e<up>   previous-entry
bind index \e<down> next-entry
bind pager \e<up>   previous-entry
bind pager \e<down> next-entry

I got
set locale="se_SE"

and it works fine, but this is on linux.
Hopefully the Norwegian locale will give you what you want.
