What does "new" mean? Lacking the 'seen mark? Having the 'recent
mark? If it means something like "added to the group since the last
time you checked for \"new\" articles", then I think there's no
built-in way to discover that; you'd have to maintain a duplicate
article list and compare it to the current list yourself.
