Assuming that you want to run this as a cron job eventually, you should add an outer loop to the sh script.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -r job.pid ]
then
echo previous job `cat job.pid` still running
exit
fi
echo $$ >job.pid
.....your script
rm job.pid

This will prevent a second job starting while the first is still running (or has died.)
Secondly, the line "for f in *562" will pick partially received files if this process is running while some other process is dropping a new file into the directory.

Syntax
       mhpath [ +foldername ] [ msgs ] [ -help ]

Description
       Use the command to display the full pathname of the specified folder.  If you do not specify a folder, displays the pathname of the current
       folder.

       If you specify a message with its message number, displays the pathname of the specified message.  You can also specify a  number  of  mes-
       sages,  or  a range of messages.  If the top of the range that you specify is greater than the last message in the folder, displays as much
       of the specified range as possible.

       first	 The first message in the folder.
