create a lockfile with the extension <filename>.lock</filename> so that
procmail will not deliver to the mailbox while it is being processed. It will
also create an advisory lock on the mailbox using &lockf;.
+The archive is locked in the same way when it is updated.
<command/archivemail/ will also complain and abort if a 3rd-party modifies the
mailbox while it is being read.
