Some people (like myself) have fetchmail/procmail doing the fetching of
the mail, and procmail invokes rcvstore into the proper folder(s).  So
there's no background 'Inc' being done(*).  Thus the bug - it's possible
for the sequences to get modified behind exmh's back....

(*) my .procmailrc is 500+ lines and has 91 different rcvstore commands
in it - I've gotten at least 5,617 pieces of e-mail already this month,
and somehow "inc" just doesn't cut it...   The only way I keep my sanity
is that 3,243 of the mails were bounces and related Listserv stuff (being
postmaster of a very large Listserv server can suck sometimes) and are
amenable to being *heavily* pre-proccessed by procmail/awk/perl....
