It may be a matter of interpretation.

Squatter creates an index of ALL messages in the mailbox, not just those
since time that it was run (i.e., it does NOT do incremental updates).
Any messages appended  to  the mailbox after squatter is run, will NOT
be included in the index. To include new messages in the index, squatter
must be run again.

I took "does NOT do incremental updates" to mean the index is not
updated on-the-fly when new messages enter the mailbox, only when
squatter is run.
