 I have changed to default for that option back to 0.

 I have made some changes so that multi-message mailboxes seem to work correctly with the -u (increment=1) option.  I have also added a check if usegdbm is on and hypermail is used in the non-incremental mode with a mailbox that doesn't start with the same msgid as the existing archive. I will think later about getting this warning to work without gdbm and will consider whether it should be turned into an error instead of a warning.
