deleting messages - no more worrying about Aeonic implications!

Now if you do MSG DELETE RANGE...., or MSG DELETE ALL, have no fear - you will not be bringing Aeonic horrors upon us all. We've reWoven things so that any attempt to get rid of more than about 100 messages at a time will be cut down to about 100. It'll take a few more commands to get rid of very large message counts, but it should be much easier on the rest of us now.

So go ahead: use MSG DELETE ALL or MSG DELETE RANGE ..., and help us to a leaner, meaner, faster Achaea!

We've had great success so far. Total messages in Achaea have gone below 2 million for the first time since the new messaging system went in. The high water mark was about 2.15 million, so you all, the faithful among us, have managed to trim away over 150,000 messages! Wahoo!

Penned by my hand on the 17th of Glacian, in the year 444 AF.
