If you use rcvstore, rather than file the messages directly, the sequences 
will be updated, so an example recipe would be:

: 0 w:$HOME/.lock
* ^TOprocmail
|rcvstore  +unix/procmail

MH doesn't do any locking, so a lock file is needed to prevent the sequence 
file being trashed if two or more messages arrive at the same time. You'll 
also need to set your PATH in your .procmailrc to include wherever your MH 
library programs are kept.
