I ... do not see how your patch changes anything, so perhaps I am
completely misunderstanding your problem.  The sequence file is not
written until seq_save() is called at the top-level of rcvstore.
set_unseen() is just a macro which expands to this:

        bvector_set (msgstat(mp, msgnum), SELECT_UNSEEN)

In fact, the more I think about it, the more I wonder WHAT is going
on, exactly.  The things you describe happening do not make sense to
me.  Since the unseen sequence is not modified until the very end of
rcvstore, there should be nothing to remove from the unseen sequence
during the hook operation.
